<\/div>\r\nThis month’s BOM\u00a0uses two different Drunkard’s Path\u00a0blocks\u00a0(as described in the Skill Builder tutorial) to create a modern, asymmetrical layout. The layout challenges you to match curves when aligning blocks and to have some curves come right to the edge of the block while others have negative space around them and float within the space.\r\n

BLOCK INSTRUCTIONS<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n

Step 1 – Sew quarter circle units<\/h3>\r\nUsing the Drunkard’s Path Skill Builder tutorial<\/a>, sew the quarter circle units together.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n

Step 2 – Layout Block<\/h3>\r\n
\r\n
Layout the quarter circle units and the full squares as shown below.<\/div>\r\n
\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\"\"<\/div>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n
\r\n
\r\n

Step 3 – Block Assembly<\/h3>\r\n
Sew the quarter circle units together into rows.<\/div>\r\n
Sew the rows together into the block.<\/div>\r\n
Trim block to 18.5″<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n

\r\n
\r\n

QUILT LAYOUT<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n
This block could be made in multiples to make a modern quilt.\u00a0The illustration below demonstrates one possible quilt layout. The blocks are all identical. They are simply rotated to create a playful arrangement that produces a feeling of movement and interesting negative spaces.<\/div>\r\n
\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\"\"<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\nThere are so many things you can do with Drunkard’s path blocks. I hope you will explore more ideas on your own. I have a Quilt Along on my blog that uses the Drunkard’s Path block. Those posts can be found here.<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0Look for number 5 on piecing for\u00a0another basic tutorial on making the Drunkard’s Path block.\r\n
