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

This week we’re busting scraps in the CUTEST way! This week we’re busting scraps in the CUTEST way!

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 ❤️

The Walt Crossbody from @minnieinthemountains is absolutely adorable and I love the two size options. I’m also so grateful to Jen for sharing with us how to make the ears and the bow. I’ll be using that on future bags!

Have fun with this one!

This week we’re sewing up the Ellie Wallet from @sewfisticatedsg and it’s one of the best BEST and EASIEST wallets I’ve made 😱

This is also Augusts @bagmakingbeesclub box and we’ve got bonded nylon, faux leather and ripstop!

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 ❤️

[This is an 18 month block of the month, all foundation paper pieced, all @libertylondon fabric]

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!

Just trying to eat up my expensive scraps any way Just trying to eat up my expensive scraps any way I can… 🥴

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 ❤️❤️❤️

My masterpiece(s) of 2026! The stunning Andy Backp My masterpiece(s) of 2026! The stunning Andy Backpacks!! 

I’m so stinking proud of these. And I’m still not sure how @uhohcreations was able to write a pattern for this that makes it easy for us to create our own. The math and shapes and intricacies of this, but then the easy way the pattern explains each step. I still don’t know how I ended up sewing this, and I made it TWICE! Pattern magic I tell you!

And sadly, the @bagmakingbeesclub Mega Box which supplied all the materials for each bag is no longer available for order 😭. Be sure to check out all the beautiful nylon materials you can put together to make your own Andy at @wondergroundfabrics 🥰

I feel like a bag warrior after making these 💪💪
