Moosehead Quilters

2005 Blocks of the Month

All blocks this year are 12" blocks. They should measure 12-1/2", which includes a standard 1/4" seam allowance on each side, so they will be 12" when sewn into a quilt. Be sure you do not trim off the seam allowances when squaring up your blocks. It is better to have your blocks just a little too big, than to trim off any points!
