Welcome back for week 17 of the Sewcialites 3 Quilt Along as we celebrate our amazing quilting community! Each week, one of the 25 oh-sew-talented designers we’ve teamed up with is bringing you a new block pattern. This week, we’re excited to introduce the flittingly fun Flutter Block by Sandy Gervais!
Flutter Block by Sandy Gervais
This week’s designer, Sandy Gervais, is an amazing fabric designer for Riley Blake Designs and the pattern designer behind Pieces From My Heart patterns. This week, she brought us the beginner-level Flutter Block, and a few neatly nested seams are all you need to create perfect points in this block! You can join Kimberly for a live sewing tutorial of the Flutter Block on Friday, June 12th, at 9AM CT, in the Behind The Seams Livestream on the Fat Quarter Shop YouTube Channel.
Sandy is sewing her Sewcialites 3 Quilt with her Renew collection for Riley Blake Designs.

Take a look at the Flutter Block in all three size options, using different collections! Kimberly sewed the 6″ block using Lyda Rose by Bunny Hill Designs for Moda Fabrics, Gina Tell (@gina_tell_threadgraffiti) made the 3″ block in Wild Honey by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics, and Pat Sloan (@quilterpatsloan) pieced her 9″ block with Rosie by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda Fabrics.
Three of our Quilty Staffers are joining in and making the 9″ blocks using Blueprint by Camille Roskelley for Moda Fabrics, American Gatherings III by Primitive Gatherings for Moda Fabrics, and In the Garden by Corey Yoder for Moda Fabrics.

At first I thought the main photo on the blog post was the wrong block. What a difference fabric placement makes. This is such a unique block. I love seeing the variations.
