Hello and welcome back to the Chatsworth Quilt-Along!

This month we are continuing on with Blocks 9 and 10. We are almost to the finish line with these blocks, then we'll dive into the setting, which is always my favorite part!

Month 9

Grab four more assorted prints to create a new set of four prints than what you’ve used before. This block is like a few others we’ve pieced so far, made up of flying geese units and folded corner units. Be sure to try using my Simple Folded Corners Ruler -- it really helps with the units in this block!

Month 10

Again, pull together four new assorted prints to create a different combination that you’ve done before. This is one of my favorite star blocks, and in the video, I show you a little tip on how to get your points when putting together the quadrants.
