Now I’m ready to see what I can do with the blocks I have made. There are three quilt arrangement ideas presented in the book for using the bear paw blocks. I’m going with Modular. Wishing you joy as you gather your blocks into a quilt top!

I've really got to think of a better name for this quilt. At the moment I'm just calling it what it is, a scrappy bear paw quilt. I really didn't want to be tempted by new patterns this year, but this quilt has special significance. I belong to Capital Quilters in Wellington, New Zealand, and the bear paw block is part of our logo. Our guild will be 30 years old this year, and the committee came up with the idea of making bear paw quilts as a way of celebrating the anniversary. Of course…

My husband's Christmas quilt, "Bear Tracks" is now finished! Jan unknowingly helped me name this quilt when she referred to it as bear tracks in her comment on my first post about the quilt. I am so grateful for her help, because I couldn't figure out what to call it. The names that came to my mind were "Walk in the Woods" or "Bear Walk." I like "Bear Tracks" much better. I designed this quilt because I couldn't find any outdoorsy prints to do a simple patchwork. I decided to use bear paw…

Nadra Ridgeway on Instagram: "💪 This additional tip will make it even easier to sew the curved seam on the Bear Tracks quilt block - thank you @lynn_kavanagh for the idea! 😊⁣ ⁣⁣ 🐻 Bear Tracks is my twist on a favourite classic, the Bear Paw quilt block. You’ve probably seen it before, but certainly not with curves! This small but nice detail makes a change in both the look and the sewing process and is even more reminiscent of a bear’s paw, don’t you think?⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The pattern available in…

Isn't this a beautiful Bears Paw quilt? I love the addition of trees in the border. Stitch-in-the-ditch: the borders, the trees, setting triangles, sashing, perimeter of the bear paw block, and green ribbons. Half inch straight lines in the background. Motifs in all the pieced units. With the colour variation between the brown border and the brown setting triangles, I treated them separately instead of quilting as all one unit. Evergreens were added to the tree border, along with windy/cloud…
