Moda Blockheads 4 (Block 24)
I blinked – and there was a new block for Moda Blockheads 4 free block of the week. This one is so darling! Block 24 is “Outtakes” by Vanessa Christenson of V & Co. Visit her blog to download the free pattern today.
Block 24 “Outtakes”
Mine looks a little funny – I used an earlier draft of the pattern and tried cutting my own pieces merely using the 60 degree angle mark on my cutting mat. I looked up the updated pattern afterwards and found there are FPP pattern pieces available. I would definitely recommend piecing these using that technique – they will be much more precise!
Fabric
The first batch of blocks (above) is made using Flower Pot fabric. I’ll be sharing the layout option for this one very soon. It’s super simple and uses a couple charm packs in conjunction with the Moda Blockheads sampler blocks.
This other block is made from the Love Note collection. I’m starting to have an idea for the layout of this one. It’s been tricky since they are so small (4.5″ finished) and close to a few dozen of them. I’ve toyed with the idea of making it into a baby quilt but am still unsure…

For more information, check out my original Moda Blockheads 4 post about it here. If you scroll to the bottom of that post, you will find a running archive of blocks released thus far. You can also join the Moda Blockheads group on Facebook for lots of inspiration and a place to share your progress.
