This month’s Quilt Block Mania theme is “Forest.” A couple of years ago I made a tree block so I wanted to do something different this year.
One of my favorite things to do in the winter is to drive up American Fork Canyon to Pine Hollow. When you are in the parking lot the view of Mt. Timpanogos is beautiful and across the canyon the slopes are covered by lovely spruce trees. It is the only place in Utah where I get a tiny taste of Maine.
This block is designed to look like snow capped mountains with slopes of trees at the lower elevations. I tried to keep the construction as easy as possible. The blocks are either Half Square Triangles or plain squares and rectangles. I planned the HSTs to be a bit oversized so they can be trimmed down to perfection. I find that is easier for most quilter.
This block will be free throughout the month of December 2023 and after that it will be $3.50 on Etsy.
There are lots of other beautiful Quilt Block Mania blocks by other designers for you to download, so follow the links and get ALL the FREE stuff before it is gone!
