Welcome to the Craft Hackers Quilt a Long (courtesy of fab shop hop!) Block 6 is the Dead Tree This block was surprisingly easy! If you want to try to attempt any of the blocks and are new to quilting, this is one you could probably try your hand at. This is an intermediate level quilt. If you don't have a lot of basic quilting skills you probably don't want to attempt this quilt or you may get frustrated. The quilt a long will stay posted so if you are learning to quilt you can always come back and join at any time, even if we are finished! Please post your squares as you finish them so we can cheer you along! Even though I am posting a square a month I don't want anyone to feel pressured that you must finish the block within a month. This is a relaxed quilt a long that you can complete at your own pace. Although anyone finishing their quilt during the quilt a long time will be featured in a special blog. The finished dimensions are 72" by 72". Just to remind you, here is the finished pattern: www.fabshopnet.com/images/halloween_sampler_450px.jpgHere is the pattern for the Dead Tree for block 6. www.dropbox.com/s/826tsc1txew9vfk/6-halloween_fabshop_hop_dead-tree%5B1%5D.pdf?dl=0There is one small change for this pattern. Instead of making 2 A blocks, you need to make 3 of them. Happy Quilting!

So I completed a test block, but this isn't going to be the one for my quilt. My mother and I are making a third quilt with a combination of our squares. This is going in that quilt. As I was finishing off this square for the post today I got to thinking. I was asked to make some videos that show techniques and how I may do things a little differently. Would you guys like me to start doing a step by step tutorial on these blocks with video?

That would be cool and an easy way to bump up the videos. You could just do tutorials of certain parts of the block- like this is how you do HSTs or such too.
