Create Big, Bold Blocks—No Matter Your Hoop Size!
Think beyond traditional quilt blocks with our versatile Large Block Set! This multi-hooping design set includes four striking centre shapes—Circle, Square, Diamond, and Heart—giving you endless creative possibilities.
What makes this set truly special? Each block is created in multiple hoopings, allowing you to build a much larger finished piece than your hoop size typically allows. For example, a 4x4 hoop can create a nearly 8-inch block, while a 10x10 hoop creates a nearly 20-inch block! 🪡📏
Each block stitches together seamlessly to form a fully quilted block. And they’re not just for quilts! The 8x8 version is perfect for cushion covers, or you can back your blocks on a sewing machine to create placemats, tote bags, wall hangings, and more.
With a generous central area designed to match your hoop size, these blocks are also ideal for personalizing — add your favourite embroidery or applique design and let the large, quilted frame make it shine.

IDEAS FOR USING OUR LARGE BLOCKS 🧵✨
🎨 Artsy Quilt Panels
Have a stash of stunning batiks or hand-dyed fabrics you’ve been saving? These blocks are the perfect way to showcase those bold patterns. With the large centre shape acting as a frame,create a cohesive quilt with a mix of fabrics and centre shapes — or go wild with an eclectic fabric gallery!
🧵 Feature Your Favourite Embroidery Designs
The centre of each block is sized to match your hoop, making it ideal for adding embroidery or applique:
- Choose a design that fits perfectly inside the shape.
- Or get artistic and let your embroidery stitch right over the shape, like we did with our Diamond Block example!
The surrounding quilted frame makes every design pop.
🖼️ Create Stunning Photo Quilts
Print your favourite photos onto fabric and use them in the centre blocks to make photo quilts, memory cushions, or wall hangings. This is a beautiful way to preserve special moments and turn them into stitched keepsakes.
🛋️ Quick & Stylish Cushion Covers
The 8-inch block size is just right for making 14-inch cushion covers. Stitch one block, add a backing, and you’ve got a custom, one-of-a-kind cushion to brighten up your home or give as a thoughtful gift.

Don’t stop at quilts and cushions — these large blocks are ideal for placemats, tote bags, wall hangings, and more. Simply stitch your block, then add a backing on your sewing machine to complete your project. They’re a quick and effective way to turn your embroidery into functional art.
