It is Week Two in the Riley Blake Mystery Quilt along and it’s time for a new block! This week’s free pattern is the Sweetheart Block in the 2022 RBD Block Challenge!
This week’s block is my block! That’s right! I designed this week’s block – the Sweetheart Quilt Block. Isn’t it fun! I just love heart blocks and I design this block to have a fun “frame” to the heart!
If you are new to the RBD Block Challenge, Riley Blake is hosting a free mystery quilt along that started last week! There are 16 blocks, all designed by RBD designers and at the end, they are also giving away a free layout for the quilt! (and it is fabulous!!)
Last week was the first block, the Daisy Chain Block, designed by Lori Holt.
I’m sewing with my newest fabric collection, Enchanted Meadow! It will arrive in stores later this month. I am having a blast sewing with it for this challenge!

There are also video tutorials each week! Check out the Sweetheart Block video here:
The block patterns will stay available for you so you can sew along at your own pace, but it’s so fun to join in with everyone else sewing along. You can join the RBD Block Challenge Facebook Group as well and share your progress!
Are you sewing along with us? I hope so!
Thanks Bev for your beautiful block! Can’t wait to get cutting and try to work this out. Definitely looks to be a challenge for me, but that’s why I jumped in head first to this quilt along to push and challenge my basic skills.
Thank you!! I hope you have fun with it!!
Will you be posting a video of your process?
Hi Shari,
I won’t be but there is a Riley Blake Video for the block that you can check out in the post. :)
Your block is so charming! Love how careful you are with the directional fabric.
Thank you!! I do love directional fabric!! :)
Have been looking for a block to pair with an old fashioned Valentine red work embroidery. The center heart in your block will be perfect! Can’t wait to get started piecing. Thank you for the design.
This block really is a sweetheart – thankyou!
I’m so glad you like it Raewyn! Thank you!
Beverly,
Thank you for the beautiful block.
