Sewcialites Block #7, Kindred

Welcome to week 7 of Fat Quarter Shop’s Sewcialites sew along.

This week our block is designed by Bonnie of Cotton Way.  It is just the sweetest little block…as are all of these blocks in the 3″ size. =)

You can find the free block pattern (available in 3″, 6″, or 9″ sizes) available on the Fat Quarter Shop Blog today.  As I mentioned in a previous post, you can also find all of the blocks uploaded as they are released, in this spot…it’s a great one to bookmark!  I didn’t share the block from last week here on my blog as it is not one that I am including in my quilt (I don’t need quite all of the blocks for my lay out so I’m skipping a few of the blocks with more piecing).  So, if you missed the block last week, make sure to print out a copy here (it’s block 6, Devoted).

My Sewcialites Lay out

Above is my lay out plan.  I am using Spring Brook Fabrics which come out in January for my quilt plus Moda Bella Solid in the color Etchings Stone (light gray) and Etchings Slate (dark gray).

I’ve been asked if I am going to share more details about my lay out such as yardage and construction information.  I’m not sure if I will–right now it’s just a matter of having time to do so!–it always takes a while to sit down and figure out the math and yardage as well as prepare the templates into a shareable form.  But if I get all of that put together I’ll be sure to. =)

I hope you guys are all enjoying the Sewcialites sew along!  If you haven’t checked out the Sewcialites Facebook group, be sure to do so–it’s a great spot to see the blocks being made.

Have a wonderful Weekend!
