Sunni's Block

Ta-da! Here's Sunni's block!


All finished! Here's Sunni's block!


I found the inspiration for this on Pinterest (like everything else in my life!) I took lots of pics to show you all exactly how I made it. If you don't care, you can skip it. My feelings won't be hurt!

First, I drew a picture of what I wanted the block to look like.


Draw it out!


Then I traced each piece of the block onto fusible webbing.

Next, I cut out each piece and the fabric to correspond. I laid it all out so I could make sure I didn't have too much of one color in one area.


Cut fabric and lay out


Iron the webbing onto the fabric and cut out each piece.

Take a break. Drink a limeade. :)


Break time!


Iron on your appliqués.
