It's a colony of bats!!!!
Nocturna is a quilt block pattern inspired by bats and constructed like a Courthouse Steps block with alternating colours to resemble the psycho-hypnosis effect in scary movies!
The Nocturna block was first designed for the 2023 Soul-a-Long - a delightfully scary quilt block event!
It is now available in my shop as a quilt block pattern in PDF format.
The block finishes at 12" and can be used however you like! Use one for a pillow or bag, sew a few together for a table runner, or make 25 like me for a delightfully batty throw!
I also sewed three together for a spooky table runner!
These samples feature Art Gallery Fabrics Spooky n' Witchy collection - it's so good!
My daughter chose the magenta and pink combination in the quilt below and it's spectacular.
Aspen Grove Quilting added a spiderweb pantograph and it's our perfect Halloween holiday quilt now!
