Crossroads Quilt Along - Friendship Block

Again, I am posting a day early, but tomorrow I have something special to share and I didn't want these blocks to get lost in it :)   So today I am excited to share the third set of the Crossroads Quilt Along blocks.  This month it is the Friendship Block and aren't they just so great!!!



Again, these block looks a little complex but it really goes together quite quick.  And have I mentioned at these are finishing at 8" blocks.   I just love tiny piecing and it adds so much to the overall effect.  Just like last month, I want to make an entire quilt of just this block now!    So fun!!!



If you sewing along or want to join in on the fun,  you can download the block pattern right here and then don't forget to donate the $5.00 for the pattern to the March of Dimes  ;)  I just love that not only are we making lovely quilts, but that we are all working together to help premature babies in need!! 


And of course, , if you are a little nervous about about stitching up this block, you need not worry as.  Kimberly and Joanna , have made a fabulous You Tube video.  It is going to share lots of little secrets to help you get those nice perfect points!!




And be sure to share all of your Crossroads progress on social media with #crossroadsquiltalong and check out these fabulous bloggers who are quilting along for some Friendship Block inspiration :)
