April 2023 Block Lotto - Arrows Away

April Block Lotto

Arrows Away

11.5" unfished square. Blocks are due at the April meeting. Each block you make will get you one entry toward winning the lot. If there are enough blocks to make more than one quilt, we will draw more than one winner.

Arrow side of HSTs - Medium to Dark Blues 

Border and Light side of HSTs - white/low volumes 

Make 4 HST’s per block that measure 4 ½” unfinished. Please use either the 4 at a time tutorial below or use the 8 and make enough for 2 blocks at once.

Border strips – 8.5” x 2” (2 qty)

11.5” x 2” (2 qty)

Layout 4 HST in the pattern below and sew together into a 4 patch block and press your seams. Attach the 8.5"x2" strips to each side and press. Attach the 11.5"x2" strips to the top and bottom and press. Trim to 11.5" unfinished.
