Supplies for one 12 ½” block:
12 ½” square of background fabric
4 ½” square of fabric 1
7 ½” square of fabric 2
10 ½ square of fabric 3
½ yard of Pellon Wonder Under fusible web
rotary cutter, plastic ruler, cutting mat, scissors, iron,
pdf of the appliqué templates (available as a downloadable pdf on google docs)
Instructions:
1. Print the pdf of the appliqué templates and cut out each of the three shapes with a pair of scissors. Tape the two sections of Piece 3 together to complete that shape. Note: to make the templates more sturdy, print them out on cardstock instead of paper.
2. With a rotary cutter, straight edge, and a cutting mat, cut
the fabric needed for one block: 12 ½” background square, 4 ½” square of fabric
1, 7 ½” square of fabric 2, and a 10 ½” square of fabric 3.
I used an aqua
print with circles for fabric 1, and orange print with small flowers for fabric
2, and an aqua solid for fabric 3.
I used a creamy white for my background square.
3. Trace each template, Piece 1, 2, and 3, onto the paper
side of the Wonder Under. Cut each shape out with a pair of scissors; do not
cut exactly on the lines, but leave a little space around each of the Pieces.
4. Following the manufacturer’s directions, press the Wonder
Under, shiny side down, to the wrong side of the fabric squares. Piece 1 goes
on the 4 ½” fabric square, Piece 2 goes on the 7 ½” fabric square, and Piece 3
goes on the 10 ½” fabric square.
5. Cut out each of the shapes with a pair of scissors to
finish the three appliqué pieces.
6. Peel off the paper backing of Piece 3 and lay it on top
of the background square so that it is in the center of it. Press with an iron
to adhere Piece 3 to the square, following the manufacturers instructions for
the webbing.
7. Peel off the paper backing of Piece 2 and lay it on top
of Piece 3 so that it is in the center of it. Press with an iron to adhere
Piece 2 to the block.
8. Peel off the paper backing of Piece 1 and lay it on top
of Piece 2 so that it is in the center of it. Press with an iron to adhere
Piece 1 to the block.
And with that, the block is finished! I hope you enjoy making your Mod Cathedral Window blocks as much as I did. I definitely want to make a full quilt out of this block design one day. And be sure to share photos of all of your completed blocks on our Flickr group for your chance to enter to win some amazing prizes.
