Moving right along with Our Downton Abbey Modern Block Challenge (which continues until Jan. 5, 2o14) we’re bringing you some DA love from our home as our very own Scott Hansen (also of Blue Nickel Studios) offers his take on what’s modern about Downton. Working with fabrics from Andover Fabric’s Downton Abbey collection, Scott gave us his take on the Dowager’s Feathers, presumably from one of her magnificent hats! We love this sassy block because it’s so simple, yet different.
Modern DA Block Dowager's Feathers by Scott Hansen
We’ve got Scott’s instructions HERE for you as a PDF download.
now it’s your turn!
YOU can play along, too, in our Downtown Abbey Modern Block Challenge! If you have our November-December 2013 issue, you can find the full scoop on our challenge, beginning on page 28. If you don’t have that issue, follow this link for all the info needed.
In the coming weeks, we’ll share more blocks by our staff and some uber-talented designer friends. Start sketching. Between our Modern Block Challenge and Ebony Love’s Mystery Quilt Along, there’ll be plenty of Downton juice to keep us entertained until Season 4 starts.
And hey, if you’re playing along, grab our button and tell the world!
