Block 7
We will be making 8 total Block 7s.
Cutting Directions:
Begin by cutting strips:
• Dark blue fabric - 1 strip 3½" x 20"
• Light blue fabric - 2 strips 3½" x 20"
Cutting with Creative Grids® ALASKA Ruler or Mystery Templates B and C:
Align your ruler or Template B and cut.
From one strip of dark blue fabric,
you should be able to get 8 pieces.
Align your ruler or Template C and cut.
From one strip of light blue fabric, you should be able to get 4 pieces. Cut 2 strips for a
total of 8 light blue pieces.
Block Assembly
They are the perfect tool to help you precisely mark your sewing points.
Arrange your pieces with dark blue piece on the top and light blue piece on the bottom.
Lay and pin them right sides together.
Then sew blocks together using chain sewing.
Press your seam open and use your template A or ruler to trim.
8 Block 7s
Our Block 7s will be positioned as shown above in our Mystery Quilt 2022 grid.
Just a reminder, we will be making 8 identical grid sections like this.
Happy Quilting!
