Heart Quilt Block


The Heart Quilt Block, designed by Vanessa Goertzen of Lella Boutique, featured as Block 25 in the Moda Blockheads 4 series. This charming block combines a pieced heart nestled within a sawtooth star, blending traditional elements with a touch of modern romance.

Vanessa showcases this block using her Love Note fabric collection for Moda Fabrics, infusing the design with a sophisticated and cheerful palette. The block is available in two finished sizes—9 inches and 4.5 inches—catering to various project needs. The construction involves beginner-friendly techniques, including easy-corner triangles for the heart and a no-waste method for the flying geese units that form the star points.

For detailed instructions and tips, Vanessa provides a comprehensive tutorial on her blog, complete with a free pattern download.

This versatile block can be incorporated into samplers, used as a focal point in quilts, or crafted into standalone projects like pillows or wall hangings. The combination of the heart and star motifs makes it a delightful addition to any quilting endeavor, perfect for expressing love and warmth through your creations.

Embark on your quilting journey with the Heart Quilt Block and let your creativity shine!
