And what’s more, you can use the lovely blocks as inspiration to create your own lovely, crocheted block pieces!
There are 49 fabulous blocks to make, which echo their stitched counterparts with names such as Flying Geese, Hourglass, Tumbling Blocks and Log Cabin and all of them can be put together into larger designs.
