Block Party – Month 4

Block Party - Jun. 01, 2020 - Jessica OklaRoots

Happy June everyone!! I've been chatting with many of you about the weather lately, and I sincerely hope wherever you are you're getting some sunshine and warm days! It really has never felt better to enjoy the fresh air!

More...

This is a great month to play around with your piecing style! Do you prefer to stick with the templates and the fabric layout of the pattern? Do you prefer to go rogue, throwing the fabric together to see what happens? Have you tried both ways? If not, this is the month to do it!

I'm showing you 2 different ways to piece these blocks. One, using the templates provided in the PDF. Just trace them, cut them, and piece them. Badda-bing badda-boom. The other method requires NO PRINTING. Instead, cut out the rectangles according to the chart in the PDF, sew them together by matching midpoints, and then trim that mess down to a pretty square. 

I'm also showing you how to use the 10.5" printable template, which you can find here.

Lots to play with this month! I cannot wait to see what you make. 

Happy Sewing!

I’m not here to tell you what you need and don’t n I’m not here to tell you what you need and don’t need in life. But as a bag maker, I would say the AnnaBelle Shoulder Bag pattern from @siahswagbags is a Bag Making 101 essential. The shape is gorgeous, you can have lots of fun with modifications, and the look of this bag can be SO different depending on the material. The structure is fantastic (LOVE the foam sandwich method) and overall it’s a fun way to spend time sewing. 10/10 no notes!

Enjoy!

The Ellie Card Case from @missfrecklesdesign is a beautiful accessory that has four card slots and a center pocket. This is a great project for quilt cotton! And there is NO HARDWARE 🙏

Check out Miss Freckles on Instagram to see her reel walking you through the process, or go visit the OklaRoots YouTube Channel for a yappy tutorial. 

Have a great week friends ❤️

Have fun with this one!

I love how we’re starting out with simple rectangles. This makes it great for those of us (me) who are still newer to foundation paper piecing. 

It’s a big block with lots of beautiful fabric! I can’t wait to see this come together ❤️

Free pattern alert! This week’s tutorial is going Free pattern alert! This week’s tutorial is going over the fun and chic Haley Wristlet from @kaurthreads . I love how adaptable this pattern is: easily make it a crossbody, add card slot pockets, and an embroidery design to the exterior… so many creative opportunities!

This is also the July/August Bag Making BABE Box from @bagmakingbeesclub , a great sew for those newer to bag making or wanting to try out bonded nylon and water resistant canvas. I love how simple and classic it turned out 🖤💜.

Have a great start to August!

Do you do anything with smalls scraps? I toss most, but for my really special materials (Harris Tweed, Liberty, etc) I’m always trying to find creative ways to use them.

Ok back to bags!
Testing out the fully lined fabric version of the Testing out the fully lined fabric version of the Babi Boxy Crossbody (a pattern originally designed for clear vinyl) is finally a success!

I’ll have a full video tutorial AND written instructions available soon ❤️❤️❤️
