I need a light house quilt block pattern?
I am looking for several options of lighthouse quilt blocks, especially an easy pieced pattern, that can be found online. I have some paper pieced and applique from quilterscache, but need some easier ones for beginner quilters. Thanks!
Specifically, I’m looking for one that is NOT paper pieced or foundation pieced or appliqued. Those are too scary for my newbie quilting friends. Thanks!
I couldn’t find any pieced lighthouse blocks that didn’t use foundation, but you could try creating your own. Make a simple rail fence block for the base and the background, then make a one seam flying geese for a pointy top. Add a square to either side to match the background, and you’re done.
Here’s a link to the one seam flying geese (there’s a PDF tutorial – it’s amazingly easy!):

Make the geese first so you know how wide to make the base. You could even make the base in alternating strips to give the lighthouse dimension, or make it slightly angled instead of straight up and down.
Here – check this link to see how I made a basic pieced lighthouse block using the one seam flying geese:
