It's hard to believe next month will be the final month for our Ella Maria Deacon quilt. It's been quite a journey. I've seen some spectacular blocks being made and look forward to seeing them set together into quilts.

Block 77

attributed to: Mary Ana Deacon

This is a pretty little block. Sew your petal sections together and them applique them to the background square.

Block 78

attributed to: Sarah Foster / Mount Holly

This is a classic block. Your pattern is printed straight on the square but you can easily tilt it a little to match the antique block.

Block 79

attributed to: William D Horner

This is one of my favorite blocks in the quilt. We've made this one before but in different colors.

Block 80

attributed to: Lydia R Kemble

This is an easy pieced block with rotary cut pieces. You'll have it together quickly.

There's a big snowstorm coming across most of the United States which makes it the perfect time to tackle some challenging quilt blocks.

Block 69

You'll want to piece your little Dresden Plate before appliqueing it to the background square. This is a sweet blocks!

Block 70

attributed to: M A Buzby 1841

Use the templates to piece your ring of diamonds and then applique to the background square.

Block 71

attributed to: William Deacon

There's a full size block illustration if you want to make templates to machine or hand piece the block. A foundation pattern is also included for this block.

Block 72

attributed to: Wm C Snyder / April 1842

This block is going to be a challenge. There's a full size drawing for you to make templates. Take your time and I'd recommend piecing this one by hand and then applique the pieced circle to the background square.
