April's And Sew On Block

It's the beginning of a new month, and I was able to make my latest And Sew On BoM!

A fun, fun Block of the month!

Kristy, the host and designer of  this And Sew On BoM, has made another super -cute pattern for April!
It is available for FREE during April,  at her Craftsy site! {Link here}

Kristy's April Block   called  “Snip It Real Good”

You can still make the other blocks in the sew along ... they are available for sale on Craftsy.  She has quite a collection of beautiful and fun paper pieced patterns now!  I just LOVE her designs!  And....She even has a complete alphabet ( upper and lower case letters) and numbers & punctuation!

And Sew On...Here are the 4 blocks so far....  

I am going to make a mini quilt for my sewing room, the sunroom, with these BoM's.
But, I also love using these patterns and incorporating them as a center block for special  projects. 

Here is a block that I started with:

Snip it Real Good    to be used ....

.... As a feature block in this tote bag

I made a scrappy wonky star for the back block

I used my quarter foot for quilting lines around the star

The inside had pockets (I pieced some owls into the pockets front)

There's a zippered pocket inside, too

The back side , with a scrappy wonky star

I'm off to my sewing room!
