Free Pattern Friday ~ Moda Blockheads 5 from Life in the Scrapatch

 


Moda Blockheads 5 has arrived! 

Click Here or All Info

Moda Blockheads, for the most part, has been a wonderful

I do not know if I will be participating.

I have a track record or making a few blocks on each round and then not completing the quilt.

 of using it ...
