Quilt blocks, Block of the Month
Cog Wheel Quilt Block
Throughout September, quilt designers around the world created quilt blocks on the theme of technology.
My block for Quilt Block Mania uses simple foundation piecing to create a cog wheel design.
Cogs have been around for hundreds of years, or even longer – there’s a design for a Chinese geared chariot that dates back almost 5000 years. The cog wheel and gears feature in mechanical technology to this day.
The block is constructed with foundation papers
