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.
Welcome to week 3 of the Quilt Block Challenge! I hope you are enjoying sewing along and learning a few new quilting techniques along the way!
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.
