The Hodge Podge continues

Posted in Paper Piecing Monday by

So this week I am taking a break from Hodge Podge star blocks for a nice simple Octagon…

This blocks would be fabulous for a fussy cut mini quilt… and it is on my “To Do” list with my Heather Ross stash.  You can download the free PDF pattern here…octagon pattern.

And just in case you were wondering how it was all looking…. this is my Hodge Podge collection so far…

Not to shabby…. and since this photo was taken I have added a few more blocks!

Okay I may have made this block just because I love the its name….

There are a variety of colouring options for this block… and there is so much you can do with it.  The block is made up of four identical pieces…

And they can also be arranged in different ways.  Lots of fun to be had with this one.  The free paper piecing pattern for my 6 inch version can be found here….Toad in a puddle pattern.

I may have to play with this pattern and make another block just for fun.
