Today is my day to reveal my block!
Heute bin ich mit meinem Block an der Reihe!
Paintbrush Studios (formerly Fabri-Quilt) is (very generously) sponsoring the 2016 New Block Blog Hop. The colors? Soooo out of my box! But, I welcomed the challenge…(more details can be found in this post)
Paintbrush Studios (vorher Gabri-Quilt) ist der Sponsor des “2016 New Block Blog Hop” Die Farben? Normalerweise nicht Farben die ich verwende, aber ich begrüsse die Herausforderung…(mehr details hier)
And here is my block:
Und hier ist mein Block:
The block is paper-pieced (no surprise here) and not at all hard to put together. Below are some examples of what happens when you put the block together or just invert the colors. The last quilt in the gallery, is particularly simple – just four blocks, enlarged to twice their size; add a border and voila! A lap quilt.
Die Methode ist “Nähen auf Papier” (sollte keine Überraschung sein) und wirklich nicht schwer. Unten sind Beispiele von Quilts die mit diesem Block entworfen wurden. In der zweiten Reihe wurden die Farben auf den Kopf gestellt. Und das letzte Beispiel ist ganz, ganz einfach – vier Blöcke, vergrößert, eine Umrandung dazu, und voila! eine Couch Quilt.
For those unfamiliar with paper piecing, give it a try! A tutorial can be downloaded from here.
Ein Nähen auf Papier Mini Kurs is hier zu finden.

That is a generic paper piecing tutorial and not one for your block though? I did see that if I clicked your first image of your block it goes to your Craftsy store.

Wow, this block has such visual impact! I really love the various layouts that you showed. It looks like kaleidoscope in the 3rd one and the 4th one with just 4 blocks would make a great medallion center! Thanks for the pattern.
