Empire Quilters Block of the Month – November 2005

Loop the Loop — Finished size: 12 inches

I hope that you will like this block as much as I do. As November brings Thanksgiving, I made my block in red, white and blue to celebrate our national holiday. It is actually very easy to make. All the squares are 2½ inches, with only two being made from triangles, the rest of it is just piecing squares.

Cut:

• 16 squares of a dark fabric
• 8 squares of white
• 5 squares of a medium print
• 5 squares of a light print
• 1 triangle of the medium print
• 1 triangle of the light print
• 2 triangles of white

Piece these together using the picture as your guide. If you have any trouble, please do not hesitate to contact me.
