The “Birdhouse” patchwork block makes perfect patchwork blocks a reality using your embroidery machine.  It is made using flip-and-sew techniques.

This item includes templates to cut your patches before you start stitching as well as an FPP template.

Enjoy accurate patchwork and piecing by using modern tools that are accessible to all sewers.

This 2023 series features blocks that are:

  • Made in-the-hoop
  • Accurate patchwork every time
  • Beautiful appliqué with intricate decorative stitching
  • Make a sampler quilt

You will no longer worry about block sizes and patchwork that doesn’t match up where it should.  With machine embroidery piecing your seams match up every time and you have perfect triangles with y-seams that are made without difficulty.

What can I do with this block?

Make a quilt that is the envy of other quilters and enjoy the pleasure and satisfaction of creating a stunning patchwork and appliqué quilt.  You can also use them for other projects like bags, motifs on clothing, and home decor items like oven hot pads, tablecloths, and table runners.

Use the block to make a tote bag:  Four patches for a front and a back, two patches for the sides and base.

All available sizes are included in your download file immediately after payment.  Bernina machines will read the EXP file type.

What you need

Skill-level:  Beginner

To make one block you will need:

  • Tear-away stabilizer or wash-away stabilizer.  I prefer tear-away for my patchwork blocks because wash-away stabilizer will distort when using a steam iron to press multiple blocks in a patchwork design.
  • Fabric glue
  • Scrap fabric for the patchwork
  • Thread to match the fabric
  • Purple Thang (optional) to help keep the hopping foot from getting caught in the folds.  An awl will also do the job.
  • Mini iron (optional) to press the patches as you stitch them.
