Spring is such a fun time of year but for anyone with allergies, it can be a bear push through. Today’s block in the Blocks 2 Quilt series reminds me that beautiful things are coming from the light green dusting of pollen. Allow me to introduce the Spring Burst Quilt Block.
When I say everything is covered in the soft green dusting, I mean everything! From the deck, to the dogs… they all are covered and making it hard for many to breath. But at least it is a signal that amazing blooms and summer are on the way.
Spring Burst Quilt Block Details
The finished Spring Burst quilt block measures:
- 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm)

The block is a simple patchwork construction that requires a basic understanding of half square triangles and flying geese. Overall, this block a perfect partner for the confident beginner.
I suggest you consider playing with color and print on this block. I pulled a variety of fabrics that include greens, blues and purple. It might be hard to see but there is even a white on white print tucked in between all those scraps.
