2018 QUBE QAL Block 6

Block #6 is very similar to block #5 but has a different center

(I’ll show an alternate block at the bottom of the post)

For this block you’ll need fabrics A,C,D, E

and shapes #4,# 5 and #16

With fabric A cut out (4) of #4

With fabric C,D and E cut out (4) each of shape #5

then with fabric E cut out (4) of #16

here’s my 6” block pieces

and 8”

and #9 (that’s the only one where shape #4 is individual)

and here’s the 12” version in batiks

sew the D and E small #5 triangles together like this

Then sew together into this windmill block, iron the seams open!

at the same time sew the remaining #5 triangles to the sides of the trapezoid #16 fabrics like this

then sew the #4 triangles to the sides of the windmill blocks

Then sew the triangle/trapezoid pieces to the sides of the blocks and it’s done!

If you don’t have the Angles set, cut out (4) of shape #3 and use instead of the #16 and #5 shapes, using fabric E

OR you could make #16 from 3 of #5 shapes, so 12 total….look at the chart above of the original block, you might be able to figure it out 😉

Here’s blocks from last week’s participants (sorry if I missed any)

Also this weekend I’m going back to Denmark for my mom’s husband’s funeral, I’ll be back Monday night, so if you make this week’s blocks by Wednesday, I’ll get them in next week’s post, otherwise they’ll have to wait
