Block Party – Month 8

Block Party - Oct. 05, 2020 - Jessica OklaRoots

Happy October!! If you're in the Northern Hemisphere you may be experience that lovely chill in the air, with that magical "fall smell". For those of you in the Southern Hemisphere, I'm sure the warm afternoons are a welcome change. This month's block is a really fun one.... and might be my favorite of the entire party... we'll see!

More...

So this month I'm giving you the option to make your own mini quilt out of mini blocks. You can see this block is made up of 4 parts (quadrants). In an effort to simplify the design (because I know many of us just need something quick these days) I am providing you with 5 quadrant patterns. Take a look at the video, download the PDF and let me know what you make!

    Hi Jess,
    Love your quilt blocks! I was wondering if you ever thought of doing a quilt block specific to each month? For example-Hearts for February, Shamrocks for March, Tulips for May, etc. These would be cute for a pillow and the covers could be changed each month! Great to make for Christmas or birthday presents or even a house warming or shower gift! Thank you-Jane

Comment BEACH and I’ll message you a like to today Comment BEACH and I’ll message you a like to today’s video 💪🏝️☀️

This week we’re making the INCREDIBLE Taylor Beach Bag from @uhohcreations ! This is a beginner friendly quick make that can hold a LOT! I am especially loving this vinyl mesh that makes the bag breathable but still supported.

This would also be a great bag for the pool, sleepover, road trips, my secret fabric stash 🤫 You name it! 

All of the material for this bag comes from this months @bagmakingbeesclub BABE box, a great subscription for beginners and sew-jo boosting.

I got a lot of questions about these ADORABLE keychains. They come as a set and they’re from @factoryfiftyfive . I highly recommend checking them out if you love all kinds of magical accessories ❤️❤️.

(Also yes, this is all cotton thread. I know I know, I say only use polyester for bags, and I’m sticking to that! These threads are used for quilting 💪)

I purchased the Fireglow collection by Sarah Watts with @rubystarsociety from @stashfabrics and the metallics are on point! I love how vibrant these prints look. 10/10

Now I just need a pattern!

We’ve got a man bag this week! Ok, this is NOT a We’ve got a man bag this week!

Ok, this is NOT a bag that’s just for the men. But I get asked constantly for bag suggestions for sons, husbands, brothers, etc. And while I do love to see a man rocking a colorful bag, I understand that neutral is a favorite option for most people in general.

Honestly? College Jess would have bought this bag in a second! I love how the Chris Satchel has that unique flap on the front with the strap to keep it tucked against the bag. The side anchors look so cool extending all the way up from the bottom. And the size is great for work and school. Once again, @uhohcreations hit this pattern out of the park!

The full kit for this bag is part of May’s @bagmakingbeesclub Bee Box and I’m obsessed with this water resistant oxford! It almost looks like a linen but is much easier to work with and maintain. 

Let me know what you’re working on this week!
