One Block Wonders BMO... Our Last Block......Rainbow Stacks

This post has been so hard to write....I have actually been dragging my feet (without even realizing), trying to avoid writing it.....

Not because of the block pattern, because I love it ...but because it's our last month and even though I know it's time, I'm still a bit sad by it's ending....

But....

We still have this month and I plan to enjoy every minute of it till it's over!!

So.....

I'm putting aside the twinge of sadness

(and scrambling to write this post at the last minute, and I mean last minute...)

And.....

With so much to celebrate this month, it certainly makes that easier to do....

Everyone of our

Fantastic, Amazing and Wonderful Sponsors

have come back to see the One Block Wonders Block of the Month

end with a big celebration....

And that means lots of prizes for all of you!!!

FYI:

This month will be run slightly differently then all of the others...

This is going to be so fun......

#RainbowStacksQuilt

I know there are some who do not like to paper piece, so I apologize that we are ending with just that, a paper pieced pattern, but if you have every wanted to give it a try.....

again or for the first time, I think this is the pattern for you....

The Rainbow Stacks Quilt Pattern can be found in my Craftsy Pattern Shop!

Sandy@UpStairs HobbyRoom

The pattern includes full instructions and 4 different sized blocks

I have written a paper pieced tutorial here, if you need a resource or refresher....

I found it helpful to label the areas lightest and darkest in the triangular areas

to keep track of shade placements.

Once your 2 stacks are made and trimmed, you will sew them together along the straight bottom edge with a 1/4"seam. I remove the paper before sewing, but sewers choice...I know some totally sew their blocks together before removing any of the paper.
