It’s time for Block 9 of the #RBDBlockChallenge with Fran Gulick of Cotton + Joy!
If you are new to the RBD Block Challenge you can read our announcement post HERE for more details.
Block 9 – Star Blossom designed by Fran Gulick

This is one of the more challenging patterns in our quilt. We recommend watching Cindy’s tutorial and paying close attention to your seam allowance so your block doesn’t end up smaller than your others (it has more seams). Fran made her block in her South Hill collection. We are sewing along with our brand new Expressions Batiks AND our classic Confetti Cottons!


Prefer a video tutorial? Cindy will be sewing each block on YouTube to help beginner quilters! Prefer a printed pattern? Click below to download!
Be sure to join our private FB Group to connect with a community of makers sewing along too! Not on Facebook? Share your posts with #rbdblockchallenge on Instagram!
We’ll see you next week for Block 10! Happy Quilting!
