    Autumn Leaf Quilt Block Pattern; RBD Challenge Block #3

    Updated: Mar 23, 2022 by Melissa Mortenson · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · Leave a Comment

    This week for the Riley Blake Quilt Block challenge, we are creating an Autumn Leaf Quilt block. This block is very versatile and can be constructed in a few different ways depending on your fabric choices.

    This week’s block was designed by Kristy Lea of Quiet Play. It’s a modern take on a traditional leaf quilt block.

    This block can be sewn in all one fabric (like Kristy’s block below) or a variety of fabrics, like my block and the others in the blog post.

    I thought the pattern reminded me a bit of a thistle so I decided to create my block from a few different blue fabrics.
