SkillBuilder Block 005 — Corner Segment Swap
Pattern Only — Digital Files Sold Separately Requires SkillBuilder Block 004 for the digital embroidery files
This month we’re building on last month’s lesson with a brand‑new technique: the Corner Swap. Inside this SkillBuilder, you’ll learn how changing the corners of an 8‑point star can completely transform the block’s personality. It’s a simple shift that creates dramatic new design possibilities — especially when paired with the Center Swap from Block 004.
Because Block 005 uses the same digital embroidery files as Block 004, this pattern includes written instructions only and is offered at a special price of $3.25.
This pattern includes:
Full written instructions for the Corner Swap
Fabric + cutting information
Layout templates
NEW Coloring Sheets to help you plan your quilt before cutting

You can get this block in two ways:
