Disappearing hourglass

Disappearing Hourglass Tutorial available from Missouri Star Quilts on you tube

Hi all! It's been lovely quilting with you so far this year! I've been interested in disappearing blocks since my first one (my very first month in Stashbee - last January!), so I knew I wanted to pick one for my block this year. In this block, I love how the hourglass turns into something totally different. There are some free tutorials online for this block, in case you would like extra guidance. Here is a great one for reference. Fabrics/Colors: Black: Solid black preferred - or the…

Pictures - MSQ Dissappearing Hourglass Quilt - I finished this quilt and really enjoyed this process. I cut the squares from my stash and changed it to 9 1/2. This allowed me to subcut at exactly 4 inches instead of some difficult number for me to see on the ruler. The block finished at 10 1/4 but was a little wonky so

This is one of those blocks that start with two squares. It can be made in different sizes though for this demo I’ve chosen a 10″ pre-cut also called layer cake. How to make 4 disappear…

My journey into the Quilting world. A journey of colors, trials, successes and failures. The beauty of woven art.

Jenny from Missouri Star Quilt Co came up with this. I watched the video twice and passed it up....told myself later.

She asked if I would join her and her daughter.....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO A gal can be strong for only so long. so... From Hour…

Sign up for my newsletter. A free disappearing block pattern in every issue. It may seem like sewing a quilt block just to cut it all up again is a little crazy, but, when the pieces are rearranged and sewn back together, they can make complex and beautiful patterns more easily than sewing a multitude

I quilted this with the back side up and traced the flowers for a unique quilting design with no markings needed I like how the border sets the quilt and the bright, happy colors.

For sometime now I have been wanting to make the Disappearing Hourglass block. I made this table runner for my friend Stan who has a birthday this week; I hope he likes it. Finally finished another Caswell block and I have started another one. In the past couple of days I sense a hint of Spring. It is still very cold but when the sun is shinning and some of the plants in my garden like the sweet pittosporum, daphnes, gardenias and even the daffodils are giving a beautiful fragrance I…

I have made another four disappearing hourglass blocks this week so now I have 12 blocks in total. I am using one of our batik multi-coloured layer cake and some yardage of a cream marble in stock. (available at Cynthia's Ark.)The plan was to make two projects from the layer cake as shop samples but I am loving sewing these blocks. So 12 blocks is now going to be 16 blocks or maybe I should go to 20. Just a little bit larger than planned. Have you made any of Missouri Star Quilt Company…
