Candy Shop Block

Jane has selected our BOM from Moda Bake Shop - Candy Shop by Alison Vermilya

For each block you will need:

Two 5.5” x 12.5” strip (for the lollipop stick half of the block) and four 4” squares of a low volume fabric for corners of the upper half of the block;

One 12.5” x 2.5” strip of brown (for the lollipop stick);

From two contrasting 2.5” strips, cut two 2.5” squares, two 6.5” x 2.5” rectangles, and two 10.5” x 2.5” rectangles for the lollipop.

Completed Block (yeah, it’s a little fuzzy, it’s not your eyes)

Lollipop portion of the block in pieces.

Partial seam begins at lower left side and ends midway through the 4 patch of 2.5” squares.

Completed partial seam.

After completing the lollipop, draw diagonal lines on the four 4” squares and sew one on each corner on the diagonal. Flip back and trim. Sew the lollipop stick half of the block. Each half of the block measures 12.5” square unfinished. Attach the two halves. The completed block finishes at 12” square (12.5” with seam allowances).
