Disappearing 4 Patch Blocks

Here is my first Disappearing 4 Patch block.

I had never made this block before...I Love it!

It is so easy to make and I really like the way it looks.

I'm participating in a block swap over at

Friendship Block Swap Group

and this is the block we are using.

All blocks will be blue & white, I'm thinking

this will be a very pretty set of blocks.

I'm making 4 different sets (four different blue fabrics),

 and I will make 6 for each set - swap 5, keep 1.  

That will give me 24 different blocks when the swap is complete.

Here is how easy the block is to make...

Start with two 5" white blocks & two 5" blue blocks.

Sew into a basic 4 patch block.

Cut 1" out from the center seam line on both sides

and both vertically & horizontally.

Give those long center stripe pieces a 180 degree spin.

Sew the block back together...

Here is my first set of 6.

Three more sets to go!!!

Hopefully I will get them done over the next

week, and then get them off to a much warmer

climate (Florida) for swapping:)

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs & Blessings,
