Four Counterchange Cross Blocks



“Mortality is an essential gift in our journey to become like our Heavenly Father. Of necessity it includes trials and challenges that provide opportunities for us to change and grow. King Benjamin taught that the natural man is an enemy to God, and will be forever unless he yields to the Holy Spirit, puts off the natural man and becomes a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord. Participation in the sacrament ordinance provides an opportunity to more fully yield our hearts and souls to God. In our preparation, our hearts become broken as we express gratitude for Christ’s Atonement, repent of our mistakes and shortcomings, and ask for the Father’s help in our continuing journey to become more like Him. We can then look forward to the opportunity the sacrament provides to remember His sacrifice and renew our commitments to all the covenants we have made.” - Elder Peter F. Meurs

  1. Thanks for showing 4 of the Counterchange Cross blocks together. It's a block that I had never seen before or heard of. It's such an easy pattern. I think I'll cut out a bunch of scrappy blocks with this pattern and sew them as leaders/enders while I'm working on other things. Are your blocks 9 inches each or 6 inches?

  2. Saturday's block is 9 inches finished. Today's four blocks are each 6 inches.
