Welcome, — your first block starts here.

You’re about to make something real. Not a practice piece. Not a rough attempt. A proper patchwork block — the Arrowhead Puzzle — that you’ll want to keep, not hide in a drawer.

This traditional block looks complex but is graded Easy. Three colours, straight cuts, simple squares. By the end of this lesson, you’ll understand exactly why each step works — not just what to do, but why it matters. That’s the difference between following along and actually learning.

Here’s what you’ll learn as you make it:

How to cut fabric accurately so every piece fits. How to sew a consistent quarter-inch seam — the single skill that makes everything else in quilting work. How to press seams so your block lies perfectly flat. And how to arrange your squares into a pattern that looks far more impressive than the technique required to make it.

These aren’t just steps for this block. They’re the foundation skills behind every quilt you’ll ever make.

A word before you begin. There is no clock on this. Watch a section, pause, try it yourself, come back. Tracy — your instructor — teaches as though you’re sitting beside her at her kitchen table. She won’t rush you. She won’t skip steps. She won’t assume you already know things you don’t. If it’s been years since you last sat at a sewing machine, that’s perfectly fine. This lesson was designed with you in mind.
