How to make a Crossbar quilt block

Hi everyone! In this video tutorial, I’m demoing the Crossbar block — a simple, graphic design built around a strong central strip that gives it a bold, modern look.

It’s an easy block to piece, using basic strip construction and straightforward sewing, but the end result looks really striking once it comes together.

I’ll take you through it step by step so you can see how quickly this block builds and how flexible it is for different fabric choices and layouts.

If you enjoyed this block, you can make a charming table topper from a single pack of charm squares. 

Chocolate Box pairs simple patchwork with a sweet scalloped edge — a quick, satisfying sew that looks great on display.

Beginner-friendly from start to finish, with step-by-step video tutorials included. 

Finished size: 29″ × 29″
Block size: 4½” × 4½”

2 full video tutorials are included in the pattern.
