Add a playful touch to your quilting with the Go Fly a Kite quilt block! This whimsical spring-inspired block is a fun way to experiment with fabric gradients while using the quilt as you go (QAYG) technique – quilting each layer as you assemble. Start with a 13″ x 13″ backing fabric, batting, and colorful fabric strips to create a dynamic kite design. The finished block measures 12.5″ x 12.5″. However, since this is more about technique than a rigid pattern, you can easily adjust the fabric strip sizes and overall block dimensions. Add a cute little bow to complete the kite look! Whether you’re making a spring quilt, a baby blanket, or a decorative wall hanging, this creative block will bring movement and joy to your project.
