The first ten Dilly Dally blocks are completed! We’ve reached an exciting milestone in the Dilly Dally Quilt Class! If you’ve been sewing along with us, you’ve likely had a chance to practice a mix of techniques, all while watching your quilt start to take shape.

These first ten blocks have been designed with approachable, fun techniques that make piecing feel effortless. We’ve focused on straight-line sewing, giving you crisp, clean results with minimal fuss. Fussy cutting has also played a significant role, allowing you to highlight your favorite fabric motifs and add charm to your quilt. And, of course, strip piecing has made quick work of several blocks, helping to speed up the process while keeping everything neat and precise.

Want to jump in?

If you haven’t started yet, it’s not too late to jump in! These blocks come together beautifully, whether you’re keeping up week by week or working at your own pace. Plus, seeing all ten blocks laid out together is such a rewarding moment–it’s incredible how these simple elements combine to create something truly special.

What has been your favorite part of making these blocks so far? Let me know in the comments! And don’t forget to share your progress of each block in the “discussions” tab of the class so we can all admire each other’s work.

Stay tuned for the next set of blocks!
