For those that might not know how to make these i though i would walk you through it. I love these blocks and am slowly making us a quilt out of them!
I cut one 12 inch block of white and one of a print! Pair the two and sew all around the outside edges Then you cut them from side to side or point to point!
This is what you have when you finish cutting!!
You sew the block up like this!
This is a envelope block! You carefully cut 2 inches from the middle all four ways, Just turn it around and keep cutting until you have this!
Then you rearrange until you get this!
I fell in love with this when i saw Jenny Doan do it on her video. It's going to make a beautiful quilt!
Have a great day friends
Hugs

Very pretty! I am making a quilt like that also. Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Company has made so many wonderful youtube videos.
I can't wait to make that one myself.
Jenny always comes up with the best ideas. This is going to be a lovely quilt.
