EXCELLENT BOOK OF BLOCKS
I am part of a local quilt group, and I signed up to do a monthly themed round-robin and found this book very helpful in creating blocks. For my group, they were to be 5" blocks (4½" finished), which is quite small and tedious. I had fun using Quilt Block Genius to come up with several of my eleven themed blocks for the year. I found the book to be informative, with ideas in the back on setting your blocks that create a new look. There are also charts at the back of the book with measurements.
Three of my blocks include Churn Dash, page 54; Carmen's Block, page 30 and Hidden Square, page 36. I have covered the measurements. But included the page with my block to give examples.
