Propeller Block


!Sew WE Quilt!: Guest Blocker with Jennifer and her Propeller Block

What a great looking block to try. Sew WE Quilt has some more great block tutorials over at her blog, so jump on over and have a look.

An update on the Propeller block - well some interesting reading anyway about it being considered an antique block. Shows a couple of ways you could make this block up into a quilt. Would look fantastic done in modern fabrics.

In May 2010, a quilting blog that I read showed an "unknown" antique block, which was eventually identified as the Propeller block. I had a lot of leftover half-square triangle blocks from a previous project and Propeller could use them up!

You can read about and see the small quilt I made with the Propeller block at my gallery page (http://users.value.net/pirate/quilting/2010-05-Propeller/)
