#240 What Happens When Churn Dash & Log Cabin Blocks Get Together-WOW! Hightower Stitching

Stephanie at Hightower Stitching shares a tutorial for a large 16" quilt block which very beautifully combines a 4" Churn Dash block as a center block
surrounded by six rounds of Log Cabin block strips ranging from 4 1/2" to 14 1/2". Setting blocks create a wonderful accent to the blocks.
