Quilt Block Mania – January 2025 – Sneaker Shoe
I am participating in Quilt Block Mania this year as a designer (#quiltblockmania on Instagram). Throughout the year, I, along with several other quilt pattern designers, will be designing and releasing free block patterns. All of the blocks will finish at 12″ x 12″, and each month has a theme.
The theme for January 2025 is “Sports.”
My quilt block for January 2025 is this Sneaker Shoe block. It is made with traditional piecing techniques.
This pattern will be available for free until March 3, 2025. After that, you can find it in my pattern store.
This is the sample block that I made. I realized that my “toe” came out a bit more pointy than planned, so I have updated the pattern to be more rounded like the image above.
Be sure to use an acurate scant 1/4″ seam – with all these small pieces, accuracy is important for your block to finish the correct size.
