Today’s paper piecing Monday block has the best name EVER… yep today I present to you the Rolling Chocolate block…
This is one of my favorite blocks and not just because it has the word chocolate in the title (though that really does help). I love how the block double frames the fussy cut print.
So here is what you need:
Four WQ Simple square block and four chocolate block components. Then a center block, fussy cutting is, of course, optional!
The blocks layout with your 4 1/2 inch square in the middle. For this block you can easily remove the paper from the block components before you sew everything together, if you are so inclined.
And again there are so many variations that you can do with this block. I have an extra large version of this block underway, and will share the pattern and results when it is done.
You had me at chocolate 😉 this is a neat block and would do it larger, sort of a funky twist on the grandma block, thank you my scrap basket loves Mondays 🙂
The large version is very very cool. I hope to have a pattern to post on Thursday.
Very interesting interpretation of this block. The one I did for the San Diego Modern Quilt Guild QAL, has the same components, but no chocolate. http://www.jansquilts.com/2014/10/sdmqg-vintage-quilt-revival-qal-october.html
Very cool. The arrow goes another way…I have a pattern that uses this component coming up. What size is your block?
That is perfect for fussy cut centers- and such a yummy name!
I love the one with the cat in the middle 🙂
This block is beautiful – and separated out as you have it – it appears easier to make than originally thought. Thank you.
