Make your coffee pot block

Download the template for this project. Trace the block pattern onto the un-waxed side of freezer paper, then cut out each section. Remember that the final design will come out as a mirror image.
Choose the colours and patterns you want to use in your block. Using contrasting colours for the object and the background really helps to make the design stand out, for instance shades of blue and green for the background, then pink and orange for the coffee pot.
Iron the pieces of freezer paper to the wrong side of your chosen fabric
