Sloop Block

Quick and easy "ITH" Stitch and Flip blocks and stitched borders and corners for hoops 8x8 or larger

The blocks this month are my attempt to beat the heat with a nautical theme. The main blocks are a Stitch and Flip Sloop and sea. The Borders are anchors and a classic nautical phrase - Fair winds and following seas, the corners are Anchors. Either corner block works well as a center block. 8 Blocks this month

NOTE

This block is part of the yearly 8” BOM Club.

Enrollment in the yearly club includes the “General Instructions” section with detailed information on Stitching, trimming, and joining, Sashing, Invisible Sashing, Applique, Rag Edge Applique, Whole Cloth Backs, Borders and Corners, and how to Bind the blocks.

The General information is also available as the single course

“8 Inch BOM General Instructions.”

Hi I'm PJ

Since 2006 I’ve been a teacher at Montavilla Sewing Centers in the Portland Metro area. I design, produce and teach the monthly projects for Babylock Serger Club, Janome, BabyLock and Brother Machine Embroidery Club, and 8” Block of the month Club.

I have a lot of fun creating projects, designs, and patterns that incorporate techniques and products to encourage the students to get the most out of their Sergers or Embroidery Machines.
