X_Ximenian Fruit and Veggie 4 design pack

Description

In this design pack you get 4 designs.

The first is the Alphabet letter and the object, which are complete intentionally without removing overlap so you can stitch them out separate if you choose.   The design stitches in a 4×4 frame.

The second is the Alphabet letter, object, and word for the object and it stitches out in a 4×4 frame.

The third is a quilt block with the Alphabet letter and object embedded in the block design.  This does not have stippling as you would do that once your quilt is assembled.  This makes a finished 6.5×6.5 block when complete.  Other possible uses for this block are to use with the herringbone quilt block and make a soft reading book, a wall hanging, or to a pillow and have the block piece picture framed in with larger strips of fabric building out to make an even larger pillow size block.

The fourth is a quilt block with a herringbone pattern and an applique box with the word of the object stitching out on it.   This is a 6.5×6.5 block finished.   You can use any of the project ideas above with this design.

In this design pack you will be getting 4 files which can be used many ways.  There are all major formats included in the .zip.   If you want to buy the entire collection of all 26 design files that is discounted further when buying in a large pack so please see the other listing for the complete Alphabet Fruit and Veggie project pack.

Directions for the Herringbone Block: Harringbone Block
Step1: This is your outline box that stitches down to show where you first fabric will lay.
Step 2: This is your tack down stitch. Your fabric will be face up. Once tack down trim leaving 1/2 inch extending off the block for squaring later.
Step 3: This is your tack down stitch. Your fabric needs to be face down extending over the line by 1/4 inch with bulk of fabric going towards the piece you just stitched in step 2.
Step 4: Pull fabric back over the line and finger press so right side up. Another tack down stitches. Trim 1/4 excess fabric on block and leave 1/2 inch on outter edge.
Step 5: repeat the process through the rest of the block steps… your essentially building a herringbone as seen in the photo on the listing
Final 2 steps are the applique box which is standard applique to get the spot you will stitch the words and then the words stitch out.

Directions for the basic block

Step1: This is your outline box that stitches down to show where you first fabric will lay which is a complete square.
Step 2: This is your tack down stitch. Your fabric will be face up. Once tack down trim leaving 1/2 inch extending off the block for squaring later.
Step 3: This is where we begin to do a picture block around the block.  The first is your tack down stitch. Your fabric needs to be face down extending over the line by 1/4 inch with bulk of fabric going towards the center of the block.
Step 4: Pull fabric back over the line and finger press so right side up. Another tack down stitches. Trim 1/4 excess fabric on block and leave 1/2 inch on outter edge.
Step 5: repeat the process through the rest of the block steps… your essentially building a picture frame around as seen in the photo on the listing.
