Welcome to the hop!
Are you singing yet?… let’s go to the hop (oh baby), let’s go to the hop….
I am so excited to tell you about my block in the latest issue of Quiltmaker’s 100 blocks magazine.
Pinwheels Galore is the block I designed. I made 2 versions.
This is the version that was in the magazine.
Don’t you just love those pigs! Too funny.
This is the other block I made.
I just love the bicycle fabric.
Now the block is adorable all on it’s own, and would make a lovely table runner.
But, the real beauty is when you make a few blocks and put them together.
You get a great secondary pattern.
58″ x 70″
Isn’t that great? It takes 20 blocks and 3 borders to make this version.
How about a soft blue and gray version?
Or maybe a holiday quilt?
You can just pick your favorite colors and have fun with it!
Now, just for you, we have a giveaway.
I have 2 Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks vol 12 magazines to give away and Quiltmaker is giving 1 away. And I have a few other goodies. While at Quilt Market last month, I picked up a few fun things and now I want to share my wealth!
