Nine Patch

A true classic and the perfect place to start.
The Nine Patch block helps you practice accurate cutting and piecing while creating a design that’s simple, balanced, and timeless.

Log Cabin

Built one strip at a time, the Log Cabin block is all about contrast and placement.
It’s a great way to explore light and dark fabrics while enjoying a relaxing, repeatable construction process.
