Springtime in Arrow Rock, Month 5

Posted on September 16, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Arrow Rock Sampler

Ready for Month 5? This installment is the last of the blocks. After this, we’re on to the setting. The last few blocks are the little filler blocks that go in and around all the other bigger blocks, so there’s quite a bit of sewing, but they’re little, so they’ll be fast! Block 14: Block […]

Posted on September 10, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge
