Dixie Diary ~ April

Asylum



We are quilting along with Barbara Brackman's
Block of the Month, Dixie Diary.


The Fabric ID and Fabric Requirements only 
show what is needed to make the block.  I notice
many people are not adding borders or applique
yet, so I have left them out of the instructions but
I have included them on my finished block.


Fabric Requirements:
 
Fabric A: Blue
2 - 4 1/2'' x 12 1/2'' rectangles
 
Fabric B: Beige
2 - 4 1/2'' squares
 
Fabric C: White Print
1 - 4 1/2'' square
 

Layout units as shown and sew together.
 

Sew a large rectangle to each side of
center unit as shown.  Press seams to
the outside.  Square to 12 1/2''.
I added the heart applique to mine.
 

I also added the small border to my finished block.
