February Block

February's block is constructed from four Log Cabin corners.

You can use these basic Log Cabin corner blocks to create a beautiful, woven-looking quilt. You just need to make two types of blocks that differ in value.

This block starts with a light square and gets progressively darker.


This block starts with a dark center and gets progressively lighter.

When you combine both blocks in an on-point, alternate-block setting, you create a quilt that has a woven appearance like this. It's quick and simple and so very much fun!


If you make a quilt based on this idea, please bring it and share with the rest of the Block of the Month friends!
