How to Sew Quilt Fairy Dreams Block 7

It’s time for October's Quilt Fairy Dreams Block of the Month! Block 7 is a pinwheel-center star framed with banded flying geese and tidy cornerstones. In the video, Angela shows a faster “no-HST” approach to the center, how to press with purpose for crisp points, and a slick bonus-units trick you can save for a future project.

Piecing on the Baby Lock Chorus

block 7 was pieced on the Baby Lock Chorus, a feature-packed sewing and quilting machine designed to make accuracy effortless. It includes a built-in needle beam and guide that let you sew perfect diagonals without marking, along with a hover function that keeps the needle down while slightly lifting the presser foot for smooth chain piecing. The machine also features manufacturer-recommended piecing & quilting stitches (look for the “P” and “Q” icons) and an easy one-touch needle threader that saves time with every start and stop. We currently have one floor model Chorus available at a special price we can’t advertise. Contact us for details.
