Month 6
Block 11- This week’s Blockheads 6 block is Folk Star, a bold and beautiful design by longtime Blockheads designer Lisa Bongean of Primitive Gatherings. Lisa has been part of the Blockheads journey since the very first series, and her designs always bring a unique blend of tradition and sophistication.
The Folk Star block finishes at 27 inches and is constructed entirely from half-square triangles. That’s right—just one unit repeated and rearranged to stunning effect!
Block 12- This week’s Blockheads 6 pattern is Flight Path by Corey Yoder of Coriander Quilts. With a simple mix of flying geese in two different sizes, this block offers crisp lines, playful angles, and plenty of opportunity to showcase your favorite fabrics. Whether you stick with a coordinated color palette or go full-on scrappy, Flight Path is a fun, fast sew that fits beautifully into your Blockheads quilt.
