I think that I spend the same time studying than sewing. When I want to start with a new project I do research to find out how to make it, different techniques, materials… That is why I have so many books and collected so many tutorials. I want to share with you some websites or blogs with very good tutorials about patchwork blocks.
Erin is the writer of the blog Why not Sew? Quilts, where we can see the evolution of her creations, which shows in detail. Last year she took part of a joint project with other quilters called Hand Pieced Quilt-A-Long that she gathered in a series of posts where she explained the creation of a quilt with twelve blocks. We can see cutting, assembly and even hand-quilting techniques.
Another quilter with a great skill that teaches very well is April Rosenthal. A good example is her four patch quilt block tutorial.
Jeni, from In Color Order, is one of my favorite quilters. She posts the tutorial of a block every month, Block of the Month, and despite her concise explanations, it is worth studying her technique.
Another one of my models is Jacquie Gering, from Tallgrass Prairie Studio, an indispensable blog modern patchwork fans. She does not publish tutorials regularly, but those she writes are great, the best in this branch of patchwork. Take a look to her log cabin tutorial.
And on modern patchwork is also very nice the section BOM (Modern Block of the Month) of Sew, Mama, Sew!, with a monthly tutorial.
About more concrete subjects, on Sewn Up by TeresaDownUnder you will find a series of textured blocks tutorials.
And on Thought And Found star blocks tutorial.
Finally, McCalls Quilting website has a comprehensive section about block tutorials.
