ONE MORE BLOCK, 6″, Light
One More Block is the name of today’s patchwork … because after today, you will only one more block to go! Can you believe we have almost made it to the end of the Challenge, and the end of the year.
I’m not sure of the traditional name of this block, but even if I was, Judy Hopkin’s name for the block is perfect. It is a variation on Crow’s Foot, which we made earlier in the year.

HOPES AND WISHES, 6″, Light
Even though it’s a tricky block, I have left Hopes and Wishes until last. It was first published in Quilter’s Newsletter Magazine in 1975, and has a wonderful three-dimensional effect.
I’ve chosen it as our last block to convey to you my sincere thanks for a couple of the most amazing years of my life! And, to send you forth with my very best hopes and wishes for the future!

THREE STRIPS, 3″ Dark
Happy New Year! I’m so excited about this challenge, and this year. Lots of sweet little blocks are coming your way!
A very simple block to start. I don’t want to scare the beginners! We will be manipulating smaller and smaller pieces of fabric; so, to get you into the right mood, let’s start by getting acquainted with 1½” strips. Here’s your first block:

If you think such a simple block is of little use, look what this quilter cooked up:

YEAR’S FAVOURITE, 3″ Dark
For those of you who find the January block too easy, here’s an alternative: Year’s Favourite, from Farm Journal and Farmer’s Wife, 1945. Give it a go!

I found a few other blocks called Happy New Year. Here they are:

EASY H, 3″ Dark
I’ve always called this block The H Block, but I am mistaken. The original Letter H is the block illustrated (left) below. Barbara Brackman dates this block to at least 1895 from an advertisement by quilt block mail order company Ladies Art Company.
It is also the base unit for a quilt called 4 H, that Jinny Beyer references as first published in 1940 by the Kansas City Star on January 24. The 4 H Block is illustrated (right) below. It might be a fun one to make later …
