Bursting with Charity Blocks

Goal: Freezer paper 4 blocks based on Burst by Leanne of Devoted Quilter

Guidelines: The guild asks that you use neutral colors for shapes A3 and A4 (the background); however, the sky is the limit for the other shapes - so have fun with pattern!

Finished Block Size: 5 inches square (this is including quarter inch seam allowance)

You can purchase the pattern here: Burst

Bring your blocks to the November meeting. We hope to have enough to create another charity quilt!
