Quick to stitch and perfect for reproduction-fabric scraps, the blocks are easy to make and you can complete several in one sitting or complete a small quilt in a weekend. Kathy includes plenty of tips for sewing small blocks, and her simple cutting instructions and clear piecing diagrams will help you succeed as you stitch each pint-sized treat.

I love how each 4" block pattern feels like a tiny historical treasure; the instructions are crisp enough that even a novice can piece them together. These schoolgirl sampler designs have been perfect for using up my scrap stash.

Natalie W. ★★★★★

The patterns for the 72 schoolgirl blocks are tiny but clear, and I love that each one has a bit of historical context included. It’s been a fun challenge to piece a few together, and the finished blocks look just like the antique ones I’ve seen in photos.
