Oh, how my garden grows!! Over the past few weeks, I have been spending more time tending to my yard, planting, trimming, mulching, and more. That’s when I realized that watering is SO important. To help, I made a cute Watering Can quilt block.
Each year, I dream of enjoying my planted pots thrive all summer long, yet it never fails, they seem to dwindle and fade. To be fair, my outdoor space is full sun and I could be better at watering them. (Goals!)
Watering Can Quilt Block
The Watering Can quilt block is available in two finished sizes that measure:
- 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm)
- 12″ x 12″ (33 x 33 cm)
Materials & Tool Supply List:
- Assorted Scraps: Pinks, Yellow, Gray, and Background Prints
- Cutting mat/ Rotary cutter/ Quilt ruler
- Heat erasing marking tool
- Spray starch
After stitching my sample, it occurred to me that this little design would be a perfect partner for a few others in my quilt library. From birds to bees and plenty of flowers, these all look super cute together!
