Happy Little Things BOM Month 2 & giveaway
It’s time for the Happy Little Things BOM Month 2 and a terrific giveaway (now closed)! This FREE block of the month is hosted by Jacquelynne Steves and you can still sign up here to receive each month’s pattern directly to your inbox. Check out the latest information from Jacquelynne about today’s block here.
Happy Little Things Block 2
As one of the participating bloggers, I get to make each block ahead of time so you can see what it looks like in different colorways and settings. My blocks are being scaled down to half size, so my finished quilt top will measure 23″ x 31″ and each block will be 6″ finished. I’m also adding applique words to make mine into a Winter wall hanging.
This month’s block is similar to last months, but slightly more complex. Instead of flying geese, you’ll be making (what I call) half quarter-square triangles. These are made over-sized and then trimmed down. I used the Tucker Trimmer I by Deb Tucker’s Studio 180 Designs to trim these perfectly. It’s such a handy ruler to have!
To trim these with a square ruler, you need to know what the center measurement of the unfinished size is. Since my block is 1 1/2″ unfinished, the center would be half of that which is 3/4″. I placed the 3/4″ lines at the center of the block, and made sure the 1 1/2″ lines were placed at the corner seams. Then I trimmed the right and top edges. After that, I rotated the block so that the trimmed edges lined up with the 1 1/2″ lines and then trimmed the other two sides.
Note: If you’re making the original size, these units will measure 2 1/2″ unfinished, so the center will be at 1 1/4″.
These units are easy to make, but matching the diagonal seams when you sew the block together can be a little tricky. The seams I’m referring to are circled below. Visually, you want to see a straight line where the seams connect.
I like to use a setting pin when matching diagonal seams. The setting pin goes through the seam intersection on top and comes out at the seam intersection on the bottom. Notice in the photo below that I pressed my seams open. This made the construction easier and flatter (usually I press to the side).
The final pressing of this block required a little clipping. Sometimes a seam intersection does not want to be pressed in the same direction as the rest of the seam. You can see below where I clipped in the seam allowance (but not too close to the stitches) so that it could lay flat.
It’s so much prettier on the front side! This is a super cute block.
Mini Version cutting instructions
The mini version of this block will finish at 6″ square. All of the assembly instructions are exactly the same as the original. Remember, you still need to sign up for Jacquelynne Steves’ block of the month to get the complete directions.
You can download the cutting instructions for the mini version of block #2 here:

Love the tutorials! So helpful!!
I seldom take the time to watch videos so written tutorials are my preference.
I love BOTH! I guess I’m showing my age but I remember a time when all of THIS wasn’t even dreamed up yet! It amazes (and overwhelms) me how much is so accessible to so many via the internet. It’s really a phenomenal thing!
I like printed tutorials.
I like both. Written because sometimes more detail included but I have a hard time following written without printing it all out & that is not always doable. Videos are great to watch when away from home & missing my sewing room. I seam to remember more from a video.
I like the printed tutorials, but videos work for me, also. Thank you for the lovely giveaway.
I prefer printed tutorials over video. I find that the pictures are most helpful.
I prefer printed tutorials I find them easier to follow and less distracting. Thank you for the chance for the give away.
I prefer written instructions/tutorials. Love your block! Hope my entry isn’t too late? [email protected]
I usually prefer written tutorials,
Even though I enjoy both, I prefer written tutorials.
I like to have video tutorials as I am a visual learner. However, I like having the written material so I can makes notes based on what I see in the video.
I love your little birds! I am a visual person so I like to see how things are made.
I like written instructions and tips. Pictures also explain how to get things done! Your work is lovely and so inspiring.
I prefer written as I can store for future use.
I’m with you, prefer the written takes less time to comprehend instead of rewinding the video to recap. Tks for all you do for us quilters
I like the written tutorial, so I can read it through a few times. But the video is always helpful.
i like both reading and video tutorials!! I like to print the readable ones to use later if needed!!
I live in a rural area so I prefer written that I can print when I have a good signal. Videos are great if I get stuck!
Thank you so much for the great tutorial. I’m hoping to win .
I like both videos and written blog post tutorial. I probably prefer the blog post tutorials though so I can go back and read through it over and over again to get it right.
I like both. But I think I’m partial to written instructions with really good photos. Then, I can skip what I know how to do and really read what I’m having troubles with. It’s harder to skip around in a video.
I am a little OCD so I like written tutorials so I can print them and then I watch the video tutorial! Doesn’t help you much, does it!
I like both a video tutorial followed by written instructions. I’m a show me type person and sometimes I get it much better by seeing exactly what’s going on. The written instructions I would use as a reminder of what I saw. Would love to win those threads too.
I prefer written instructions to video. Thx! [email protected]
definitely video. but I like to have written directions as well
Hi – I love both but prefer ‘You Tube’ videos. Love your version.
I prefer video, but i like to have the written instructions also. Thank you!
I prefer written tutorials. I am hearing impaired and it is very difficult to understand what’s happening in a video when you can’t hear it.
I really prefer written! Thank you!
I like videos tutorial best. I like to see how they are doing things in “person”
I really prefer written tutorials. I have auditory processing difficulties so reading the instructions is much easier for me.
I prefer written tutorials but also like video. Thanks!!
I prefer written instructions if I have to decide on one but I do also like video presentations.
I like a written tutorial with photos. I can move along step by step at my own pace.
Written instructions are preferred by me, and scrolling through these comments noisy everyone else too! Your block is lovely!
I like both depending on the blogger – your pictures and text are very clear and easy to refer back to!
Yo prefiero tutoriales escritos (written tutorials). Un bloque precioso. Muchas gracias por la oportunidad del sorteo.
Besos,
Pilarín
I prefer written tutorials. Videos are ok to get a quick overview of the project, but I find I have to play them over & over to really get to certain points. Much easier to follow with written.
I like both, but I prefer written tutorials with pictures.
I like videos but then want the written tutorial for measurements and cutting instructions. Video for construction.
If I had to pick, written tutorials are usually easier for me to follow. It is always nice having both though. 🙂
Since I am new to quilting, I like the videos. So much to learn about quilting so the videos certainly help understand the correct way.
I personally prefer to read a written tutorial versus watch a video.
I definitely like the written tutorials as it is easier to take notes. Can I say that I am in love with your adorable winter birds?
I love both, each type of presentation has benefits. If i had to choose I would pick the written instructions, mostly because I can go through the tutorial at my own pace, look at a still image, instead of pausing at a video and watching the same thing again. Truthfully I don’t mind, I have done it and I will do it in many video tutorials again. Any kind of tutorial is always helpful in any format!
Because I am also making the mini version, I love your written tutorial… but in general, videos are my favorite. Even if I am not making the particular project, I may watch the video when I’m relaxing just to learn a new technique or just for fun! Thank you for the mini – I love it!!
I like both videos and written instructions, but I prefer them written so I can study a section that’s confusing me!
I prefer written tutorials. Then I can print them out and read while at the sewing machine when the computer is not on. Thank you for the chance to win the Aurifil Prize Pack, Cheers!
It is nice to have the written tutorial but is also nice to see a demo if it is a new to me technique .
I Prefer Written tutorials!!
I like both written and video. I was quite intimidated by paper piecing project until I saw the video of first block. Pshaw … I can do that … lol…
I love both written and video tutorials.
I prefer written with photos as well, much easier for me to follow
Thank you for your wonderful post. I prefer written tutorials. I can read it, or print it and work through it, if need be.
Sometimes with written instructions, a step might be difficult to decipher. I do like having written instructions to refer to, but also like video to see how a step is maneuvered. Thank you for your beautiful pictures and instructions!
I love your bird!
I prefer written tutorials because I can read it through in advance of starting the project. I can also go back and forth on the page(s) if I have questions or something isn’t working.
Videos do have their uses especially with complicated procedures or titchy parts that are hard to visualize. Sometimes good photos with the written instructions will solve that but not always.
I like the written so I can print the instructions out. However, I do like the videos for the visual aspect.
I like your written tutorial a lot, but most people’s are so long to print out. A video is easy to keep in my favorites on YouTube, or to go back in my history to find again.
I like both written and video. It’s nice to watch a video but it’s also nice to have printed instructions. I recently tried paper piecing and couldn’t get it from just the written instructions.
[email protected]
I prefer video tutorials.
I very much prefer written tutorials! I am hearing impaired, and videos can be tough to understand.
I like printed the best so I do like both I love your block
I prefer vlig post tutorials. I like being able to print them out and follow along!
I like written instructions.
Videos are nice but I still prefer written tutorials. Thanks for participating in the giveaways.
I love written directions, but will watch a tutorial to clarify a point
I like written tutorials the best. Don’t always have time to sit down and watch video tutorials. I love the birds in your blocks. [email protected]
We have limited internet connectivity so I prefer the written tutorials. Thank you!
I prefer written tutorials as long as they are really clear with lots of pictures showing the steps.
I prefer written instructions. Videos are nice too, but if you missed something, you have to hit rewind, etc. Sometimes more than once for me!
I like to have a written tutorial, so I can follow along the video and make notes for myself! LOL
I prefer written tutorials. Video tutorials can be great inspiration but actually producing the project is easier with a written tutorial.
I prefer written tutorials, It is hard to remember all the information from a video, but I can reference written material
Prefer the written tutorials. Your posted steps are the best! Thank you.
I actually like the option of having both written and video tutorials. I mainly use the written, but if I find myself stuck or confused, it’s nice to have the video to refer to.
I prefer printed tutorials and only check the video tutorials if I need to see something actually done.
I like the written tutorial, but sometimes I just need to see a video. I really appreciate all the work that goes into them as I have learned so much. Thanks for giveaway.

Old school all the way–written. I don’t mind videos to get inspiration, but prefer written tutorials for everything, including cooking.
I prefer written instructions.
For this BOM project I love the written tutorial with photos. To teach a particular technique (as opposed to a complete project), then a video might be nice. I do love video, but both have value. Thank you for all that you do!!!
I prefer written tutorials with photos, but there’s also an advantage to videos when showing tricky things. too
I prefer video tutorials, its easier to follow the steps visually.
Oh my, your block with the sweet little birds are adorable!!
I usually prefer written instructions for quick referral but occasionally I I’ll watch a video to fully see the process of something new.
I really prefer written tutorials with a lot of pictures included. Thanks!
I like having both printed and video. I know that sounds strange but I read them and then if I have something I don’t understand i take the time to watch the video. Go quick first, 🙂
Another adorable block, Julie. I had full intentions of sewing along, but kept too busy with other projects to even get started. OH, well. I’ll just be satisfied to admire yours, I much prefer written tutorials. I find they are more often to the point. VIDEO tutorials tend to be too wordy and I find I get impatient.
I prefer written instructions so I can print them off so I can refer back to them if needed.
I love the little birds in your blocks. I prefer written instructions because it is so much easier to go back and read things again rather than trying to go back on a video.
I like written tutorials so I can stop and reread them as I am sewing. Old school I guess.
I love written instructions with photos. Love the mini’s and will be making this both ways!
I prefer written so I can print the instructions out, however when I am confused those videos sure come in handy
Video tutorials are helpful, but your written tutorials include pictures and great instructions. I like have a printed copy as a reference while I am working on the project.
I like both. I like to watch the video, then following along with the written steps.
I prefer written tutorials.
I am a more visual learner and find the written tutorials are better for me.
Your blocks are looking great. The borders are especially nice. I prefer written tutorials, but videos are nice too. Mostly I’m grateful for so many like you who share their knowledge generously on blogs and other web sources.
Although I watch numerous video tutorials, I’d rather have condensed written directions that I can keep handy while working on a project. My computer is not in my sewing area and hand-held devices time out. Tutorials with photos tend to have several dozen screens with minimal text per picture, so they are not practical to print out.
I like both…..
I love a good patchwork book but I am a fan of you tube if I need to watch something in progress!
I much prefer written instructions. It makes it much easier to go back and forth. Pause, rewind, play doesn’t cut it if you are crafting.
I prefer written instructions; I can easily print them out for reference at my cutting table. I also believe it is good practice to learn many ways to accomplish the same goal. Sometimes, a block needs an adaptation to accomplish, and knowing several approaches toward the same end creates a pathway instead of a roadblock!
I love written tutorias but have found videos very helpful to learn about a technique that is new to me.
I definitely prefer reading tutorials as I can more easily go back over areas I need to see more clearly.
I prefer written tutorials. Your mini quilt idea is fantastic. I like minis.
I like using the written tutorial.
I like to print out the instructions to keep at my side and refer to. Lots of pictures are helpful.
Written tutorials are the best! Videos are a nice bonus but they’re difficult to reference while working.
I would rather have the tutorial written.
I think it depends on the project and if the technique is harder to show in one form or another. Generally I prefer blog posts so I can take things at my own speed and easily go back and forth between sections of explanation.
I like written so I can keep checking those numbers before I cut!
I like a video if it’s really complicated.
I love both printed and videos
I think they both have their merits, but I prefer video tutorials
I prefer written tutorials so I can print it out and use it again. Very cute mini block!
Since I am a hands-on learner, I prefer video instruction instead of written. It takes me twice as long to follow written instructions. Thanks.
I agree that written tutorials are better than videos. Its difficult for me to get back to a spot I need in a video.
[email protected]
I prefer written with step by step pictures. I also like to see the videos as a back up
CUTE block! Love the sweet little birdie center! 🙂 I’m a visual/hands on learner, so I much prefer video tutorials, especially if I can be working the project as the tutorial is taking place. Sometimes it helps me to have something written to follow, but not necessarily.
I prefer written. That way I can reread the directions as many times as I need.
I love tutorials because I like something written to refer to when I am making something like a quilt. I am getting older so I don’t always remember the visual instructions.
I am old school, prefer wriitten tutorials. This cheerful little block will be a winter pick me up. Thanks for posting. VM
I prefer written tutorials. I find them easier to follow and reference as I work on a project.
I prefer printed directions, although the video tutotrials do supplement the instructions nicely.
I prefer blog tutorials just because we have very limited Internet data, but I would love to be able to watch videos.
I love your cute ‘little’ versions! I like reading the tutorial however there are times it is nice to have both accessible. It really depends on the project I guess.
I do like the written tutorials as I can scroll back and reread..
I prefer written with pictures. Videos can be hard to follow since I am self teaching and a little slow. Either are great though. Thanks for another great giveaway.
I really prefer written step by step instructions with pictures. Always enjoy your blog!
I like watching videos but also having print and photos as back up
I like written directions.
I like written with photos tutorials best.
I’m a visual learner so I like videos
Hello from Australia. I much prefer a written patter as I can print it out and keep it for future reference. Tutorials are a plus, but not a necessity
Thank you for all that you do and share. I like video tutorials!
I really prefer the written tutorials, I can print them out and have them available when I sew. The video tutorials are not available to me as I sew. My computer with internet access is downstairs and I usually sew upstairs. Thank you for sharing your patterns–they are lovely!
I like written tutorials the best.
I like the written ones because I can reread them and it seems easier than having to go backwards on a video.
While I like to watch video tutorials, I prefer using written tutorials to complete projects.
I prefer written. With videos I have to keep backing up to find what I missed. Thanks for the giveaway.
Hi Julie! I prefer written tutorials with pictures over videos. Your miniature version is adorable! I like how you kept the corner squares dark like Block #1.
I prefer written tutorials because I can save the information as a pdf and refer to it in the future. I love the fabrics in your block and the bird in the middle!
i love your blog posts! you explain everything just great!
I like both but prefer printed with lots of pictures. [email protected]
I like both, but I think I generally go with a written tutorial with good photos more often.
I love your mini versions!
I prefer written instructions, I’d rather read than hear. Cute block, love the bird!
I would be lost without YouTube. If I can not figure out something from written instructions my next choice is to see it visually. I will say I do learn better seeing someone doing it and me following along.
I like both, but I prefer to have written instructions.
I prefer a written tutorial myself…..thank you for the great pattern and fun giveaway
I prefer written tutorials.
I prefer written instructions with pictures. I find it more of a challenge.
I like both video and printed.
I definitely prefer written tutorials but will watch a video if the technique is tricky.
I like written tutorials.
I prefer written insturctions with lots of pictures and easy to read cutting insturctions.
I prefer written tutorials, that way I can print a copy for future reference. I can’t tell you how many times I have pulled your binding ending tutorial out of my drawer to use! I love it. Thank you.
I love the written! I read then re-read all directions for clarity, thus giving me the opportunity to go my speed. The visual pictures are helpful as well. Thank you for the beautiful pattern!
I prefer written instructions but the videos come in handy to actually see something being done.
I like both but if I had to choose I would say written.
barbkaup(at)(yahoo)(dot)(com)
I prefer written tutorials; they seem easier to refer back to later.
Love video tutorials. I am a visual learner.
I mostly prefer written, but sometimes tricky things are nice to see live!
I prefer written instructions with lots of photos.
I prefer a written tutorial with pictures as cell service is so iffy where I live (thus no computer). Watching a video is very time consuming and frustrating.
I prefer written instructions unless there are tricky bits. Not much omto videos.
I prefer written tutorials, but I like videos too.
Written tutorials are usually my preferred way of learning something, but once in a while a video is the only way to really see a tricky technique being taught. Your block is adorable and perfect with those corners matching! duchick at gmail dot com
I love the little bird in the middle. I like well written tutorials rather than just videos. A combination of both for a pattern is good too.
Julie, I guess I am ole’ school, I prefer the pattern on paper and in hand, because I forget what I just saw or read about 10 secs after reading or looking. Must be an AGE Disease symptom. thanks for your blog.
I like video tutorials. I am a visual learner.
I like the written tutorials too!
I prefer written tutorials – easier to refer to when I am working. I do love pictures with the written tutorial.
I like to have both! As a person newer to quilting, I need every bit of help I can get:)
I LOVE watching the videos, but then I like to print the written tutorial for future reference!
As a new quilter I like both.
I much prefer written tutorials. I find I learn better by reading so I can visualize it in my head 🙂
I like to watch the video, but also like the written to refer back to the instructions.
I love the video instructions but also like the written instructions for backup.
I prefer a written tutorial. I like videos but it’s easier for me to just have paper with the written word on it that I can refer to at any time without needing technology also.
I do like looking at video tutorials and also like to print out hand written instructions.
I love to have both so that when I get stuck I can see the visuals
I love video tutorials!
Written tutorials seem to work best for this beginning quilter. Birds are my favorites!
I certainly like a youtube tutorial, but when it gets down to the nitty gritty I like pictures step by step with words. I have young children who maybe sleeping, so watching youtube is kinda like watching a silent movie, sound off to let them sleep. If the text does not give enough, then I search it out on video format. Lovely blocks by the way!
I prefer like both, but prefer written tutorials to save for later. Thank you for the cutting instructions for the smaller squares. I have too many other projects to work on right now, but can’t wait to begin this one later.
i would like both written and video
I prefer written so I can print and refer to the information at a later date if I wish. I do like the videos to get a better feel for the project.
I prefer the written tutorials — just easier for me. I love your blocks — Thanks so much
I like written tutorials. Enjoy your day!! angielovesgary2 atgmail dotcom
I like blog posts (written) with photos to supplement the instructions. Yours are very helpful Thank you.
I rely on both techniques. I enjoy the visual of a video tutorial, but need to have written instructions and step by step photos also since with a video I usually have to return and review. Thanks so much for asking.
I like to have a printed pattern and videos, both on line, so I can put the printed pattern in my iPad, and print it if I want to.
I prefer video tutorials. I learn better that way.
I prefer written instructions with photos!
Hi Julie! I love your excellent tutorials. My style of learning prefers the written with step by step photos. Yes, I do watch videos and appreciate the verbal directions. For me, written is my preference. Thank you and Aurfil for sharing. (My favorite thread.)
I use both printed and video tutorials. Thanks for the directions for smaller blocks. Orhedricks at gmail dot com
I’m a visual learner, so I like to have both printed and then a video to watch
Like you, I prefer a written tutorial. I find it easier to follow.
shades000 at gmail dot com
I would rather written. really love you block thank you sew much
Personally I prefer a video tutorial, it’s easier to understand when you see someone do it. Not everyone is good at writing written instructions. Not everyone understands written instructions, I’m a visual learner. I can read something a hundred times and not understand it but when somebody shows it to me it clicks.
Thanks for the opportunity.
I prefer written posts.
Hi Julie,
I prefer written tutorials…but I watch video tutorials also! I just have to start and stop them often!!!
Love the mini blocks. I usually prefer written instructions an odd time I will check out videos.
I do prefer written with pictures. Easier for me to pick out the info I did not know and save it. Reading instructions with pictures allows me to go slow instead of keeping pace with the instructor. I LOVE your little birdies.
I prefer written tutorials with step-by-step instruction and pictures!
I love written tutorials.
I like the video tutorials best so I can see how its done. Then the printed version to refer to later or to make notes on
You know videos are great but without the written word they are not as good!
I refer the written tutorials!
I like videos… I am very much a visual learner and hate to read directions. I tend to read things into directions. On patterns I use lots of highlighter to keep me on track!
I like the written tutorials slightly better than the videos. The videos have their place but it is hard to use it at a sewing machine. I like all the detail you provide with your tutorials. Thank you for the great opportunity to win a prize.
I generally prefer to read a tutorial, but there are some things for which video is better. It’s easier to learn an embroidery stitch, for example, from a video. Thanks for the giveaway.
I still prefer written tutorials! It is easier for me to find my place when I am actually making the thing
I like a printed tutorial with pictures.
While videos can be helpful for seeing a complicated technique, I prefer blogpost directions for projects. Your birdies are cute.
I prefer to read a tutorial. Unless a video is short, they take up so much time to watch.
I much prefer written tutorials over video …. they just don’t work for me.
WOW, those are some tiny pieces! Great idea! BTW…not entering the giveaway.
I really like having both, I keep the written tutorial at my cutting table. Love the video for a new technique.
I love the video tutorials, but like having the printed to refer back to. Thanks!
I really feel the need for a printed tutorial Julie. The video’s are nice too, but your instructions with pictures are by far so superior to any video in my opinion. Thank you for the details you put into each one. I made my first mini and love it!
I like both. Some videos have a PDF that you can print. The PDF is below the description where sometimes you cna order what you need for the project. It is very helpful.
Thanks, Dee
I like having both written and video especially for more detailed steps
prefer written to refer back to, although sometimes it helps to see it on a video
I prefer written so I can print out and not rely on computer!
I prefer written instructions as they are portable and can be taken to my sewing machine. Yea…I know…I’m old fashioned and don’t own a tablet.
My favorite way of learning is the way you do your blog, Julie. The step by step photos along with instructions, using pretty and up to date fabrics, and variety of realistic projects make it a joy to learn!
I like both video tuts and written instructions as I watch then like step by step instructions to follow as I work.
I prefer written directions
I prefer the written instructions. Though I enjoy watching the videos the information doesn’t stay with me due to a stroke.
I prefer written tutorials. Thanks for asking.
I much prefer written. I think it’s so annoying to have to go back and forth on video to see it again
I prefer video tutorials.
Good Morning Julie,
I like using written instructions more than video. I am left handed and sometimes all it takes is a flip of the fabric in a different direction to get lost. It is also faster to read than watch. Thanks for all that you do, keep it up.!
I’m one of the slower quilters and I prefer to have the written instructions and then a video to work along with. I’m just getting back to quilting after years of depression and enjoying it so much.
I’m loving your mini!! Thanks for sharing with us!!
I like them both, but I’d say I prefer written tutorials.
Happy Labor Day!
I would prefer a written tutorial with great step by step pictures. Thanks,for asking.
I prefer video tutorials. As a visual person, my learning curve is greater with such a teaching method.
I prefer written but either work.
I love having both printed and video tutorials.
