Block-A-Day 14 – Panel Beater

Today I continue my quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan Claire. This is day fourteen of that project.

This little block was confusing to me at first. What is a Panel Beater? I’ve learned that Auto Body shops are called that in some commonwealth countries.

The designer is from New Zealand, a commonwealth country. It tickled me so. I think this is a charming block, and I’m excited we are starting to see a little more color.
