This week’s snowman quilt block is for the inner child in all of us because no matter what your age, there is something about snow that is magical! As a child, I would be the first on the block to rush outside and play in the snow. Making snow angles, stockpiling snowballs, heck, one year we even made an igloo. That fort turned into a solid block of ice and lasted most of the winter.
Snowman Quilt Block Details
Finished Snowman Quilt blocks measure:
- 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm)
- 12″ x 12″ (33 x 33 cm)
Material & Tool Supply List:
- Assorted Scraps: Black, Blue, Orange, Red & Background Prints
- Cutting mat/ Rotary cutter/ Quilt ruler
- Heat erasing marking tool
- Spray starch
Due to a few small pieces and improv technique, I’m labeling this block perfect for the confident beginner. The construction is a simple patchwork but the smaller pieces on the 6″ block can make things tricky for the newbie. I highly suggest starch!
For a limited time, until January 31, 2019, the Snowman block will be available for download free in the shop. After that, you can purchase it for a small fee. Be sure to have a look around and find coordinating blocks to help you create your perfect quilt!
Please share a few of your finished blocks using the hashtags #Blocks2Quilt and #TheSewingLoft so we can all see.

Comments & Reviews
Thank you for these fun blocks!!
Very cute. New to sewing/quilting and just discovered your blog. Wish I had found you earlier so I could have gotten the entire set free.
Thanks for your sweet note Barbara! Don’t worry about missing the first few blocks. This series is a year long so there will be plenty of time to add to your block library.
