A BIT ABOUT THIS
SEW-ALONG

In 2023, Laura was looking for a new project.  Realizing that she liked larger blocks, and wanting something different, she played with shapes until she found a combination that sparkled for her.  The Esther block was born!  


Using five basic EPP shapes, the block can be completed in various sizes and lends itself beautifully to fussy/focus/meticulous cutting.

So many people loved this block when she first showed it, that she and her sister, Sara, decided to host an Instagram based  sew-along.  

This sew-along will start in September 2023 and run for 12 months.  It is FREE! and it is your sew-along to do your way.


The sew-along is very flexible and informal.  You choose the size blocks you like to make, You choose how many you want to make a month.  There will be prompts along the way to encourage you to experiment and expand the ways you cut and join fabric to grow your  fussy/focus/meticulous cutting skills. 

​

We will add and link blog posts each month to compliment the sew along.
