Today we will work on Snowman Block Checkerboard brim. There are 13 blocks all together for this quilt. These sweet snowmen remind me of school recess in the wintertime. I just love all of the sweet faces and different hats! Reminds me when all of the kiddos used to line up to go outside! I used to be a playground supervisor when I worked at the school as a media clerk. There used to be a mad dash to put on the snow gear if there was new snow. Especially if it was the build a snowman type of snow! So let's make some more snowman blocks for our Scrappy Hats quilt.
If you haven't joined us yet and want to sew along with us... check with the previous postings. The pattern can be found on my website and in my Etsy Shop. This quilt is a great stash buster too!
