There is something so satisfying about a quilt block that tells you exactly what it is meant to be, and the Ribbon block is exactly that, a sweet, graphic little design that looks like a bow tied right onto your quilt. In this tutorial, Dr Jennifer Gee Hale walks through the block step by step, so you can add another classic to your block library without any guesswork.
Here is why this one is worth watching:
- A friendly, clear walk-through. She guides you through each step at a calm pace, perfect if you like to sew along while a tutorial plays.
- A block that is more versatile than it looks. The Ribbon block looks lovely on its own as a mini, repeated across a sampler quilt, or sashed up into a full bed-sized design.
- Part of a wider block series. This is block number seventeen in her ongoing collection, so once you have made this one, you have plenty more to explore.
