November Queen Bee Block - Bonnie

Bonnie is our lucky Queen Bee this month.  She came up with a great idea of creating a Quilt of Valor with her blocks.  She handed out at the meeting instructions and fabrics to start us all off with.



What we will be making is a string quilt block which is foundation pieced to a piece of muslin.



Place white string face up diagonally across the the muslin.
Add a red strip right side down on top of white strip.  Sew along one edge and pres flat.  Continue adding red to that side until you cover the square.
Lay a blue strip on top of the white strip.  Sew along edge and press flat.  Continue the same with the blue side.

Turn block over and trim to 6.5" square.

If you have any questions just let me know!
Thanks!
