Homespun Holiday Quilt-Along — Day 3: Holly Blocks

I hope you had a great weekend filled with holiday cheer and, of course, some time to sew!

Today is Day 3 of the Homespun Holiday Quilt-Along and we're moving on to holly blocks.


These little 3" x 5" (finished) blocks are simple to make, but so festive!  We'll be making eight holly blocks total, two from each green homespun/print.

Ready to start piecing?  Here's the link to today's pattern sheet:


And just in case, here are some helpful QAL links:


Later this week I'll be hosting a giveaway on Instagram.  I'll be giving away a copy of the January/February '22 issue of Quiltmaker magazineInside you'll find patterns for ten colorful quilts—including a scrappy Valentine's Day lap quilt designed by me—as well as part 1 of a 6-part mystery quilt-along called "Ruby Jubilee."  Designed by Denise Starck to celebrate Quiltmaker's 40th anniversary, Ruby Jubilee features blocks from Bonnie Hunter's Addicted to Scraps column.  If you'd like a chance to win this copy of Quiltmaker, look for the contest post this week on Instagram.

In the meantime, enjoy your week and have fun making your jolly holly blocks!
