On the YouTubes this week we are making an Anita’s Arrowhead block.
This is a relatively easy block which has a lot of potential if you consider colour placement or scrappiness or any other way that we can put together fabric – it does work better if there is a deal of contrast, but equally it would make for an interesting low contrast option as well.
This block can be made in a variety of sizes, and I have this chart below to help out with the marking and cutting.
| Finished Block Size | Starting Square Size | Mark/Cut Size | Trim Block to |
| 3″ | 4.5″ | 1″ | 3.5″ |
| 4″ | 5″ | 1.25″ | 4.5″ |
| 8.5″ | 8″ | 2″ | 9″ |
| 10″ | 9″ | 2.25″ | 10.5″ |
| 11″ | 10″ | 2.5″ | 11.5″ |
| 12″ | 11″ | 2.25″ | 12.5″ |
