Welcome, welcome to my Quiltmaker 100 Blocks Blog Tour Post! It is with the utmost pleasure that I share my block and quilt from Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks Vol. 5with you today!I’m celebrating by not only sharing my block and lots of fun photos, but with fun giveaways! Make sure you scroll to the bottom for details! |
If you do a little bit of poking around on Sewhooked, you’ll find that I’m absolutely obsessed with paper piecing! I design my own patterns, I teach paper piecing courses both online and in real life and I am active in a number of paper piecing groups.
Just recently, I hosted the Garden Party Blog Hop, which featured a new paper pieced pattern every day during the month of April, each by a different designer!
You can also find me right each week hosting Talk To Me Tuesday, my crafty show and tell vlog!
Enough about me, on to the fun stuff…my Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks contribution… May Showers!
Meet Sue. She’s a sweet little lady, heading out for the day. She takes her umbrella and then reaches out to see if it might be raining. April is over now and she’s ready for May flowers, but a few drops of rain are still falling!
How about trying May Showers in a variety of fabrics?
Just look at that sweet little hand! Don’t be scared of tiny pieces, they’re just like any other part of a paper pieced pattern, but with less stitches!
I do tend to make a mess when I work!
Quick Tip: When stitching block units together, remove the paper that is inside the same allowance after you stitch. That will keep those tricky little pieces from getting stuck when you stitch across the seams.
I was super excited when I was asked to contribute a quilt for Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks that included May Showers. I ran with the very first idea I had, which was our rainy day girl leaving her house! I call this piece 100% Chance of Showers. 🙂
Sue and her house (which had to be purple!), in progress (above) and a great photo I took outside (below) before mailing 100% Chance of Showers off to Quiltmaker!
This quilt is actually four individual blocks, all created to work together! It’s made primarily of Moda Marble coordinates.
To quilt 100% Chance of Showers, I outlined the shapes of Sue and free-motion quilted in the background.
For the house, I added “siding” with stitching and quilted around the windows so the panes would stand out.
I make most of my quilt labels by ironing a piece of fabric to freezer paper and securing the top with masking tape. It works fantasticly, as you can see! To make attaching my label a bit quicker, I stitch two sides into my binding before appliqueing the rest.

What a brilliant block. Love the idea of her coming out of her house – almost two blocks in one! I am totally new to paper piecing but would love to give it a try. Just need a bit more confidence! Where to start. Liz x
She’s adorable. She would fit real well over here in Australia at the moment with all the rain we are having. Shame that I cannot find The 100 blocks magazine over here. Would love a signed copy with your signature.
Thanks

I love your block. It is neat How you took the traditional April Showers bring May Flowers and then added the twist that the rain does not stop just because the calendar date changes.

What a cute block! I love the umbrella for some reason. Thank you.
I absolutely LOVE your creation! I do feel a wee bit intimidated by it. I have not paper pieced, something I would have to read up on and attempt before trying your block for sure, lol. Again intimidating but love it!
I love this block. I have made two sunbonnet sue quilts already and would love to try a diiferent version.
This is super cute, and it looks great put into the quilt with the house.

Paper piecing is not my favorite way to make blocks, but your quilt is so adorable I don’t having to paper piece it.
I love paper-piecing and I make a HUGE mess when I do it. Fun, fun! Here’s hoping I win 😉 Thanks! klucking(at)fairpoint(dot)net
This is a great block…perfect for the rainy Pacific Northwest! I right away thought how fun to make a bunch of the girls on the streets of Seattle with the Space Needle, Pike Place Market, Pioneer Square….
You’ve captured me for hours by all the information and links to paper piecing sites. I’m going to see what’s still active in the paper piecing blog hop that took place in April for certain! Your 100% Chance of Showers block is awesome. Those itty bitty sections to paper piece are a little daunting at first but doing them enough (sometimes the same piece) over and over builds up ones confidence. I’ll find time to visit you often. Thanks for an opportunity to win. Sandi
I love your cute block. I have not tried paper piecing yet but your block has definitely inspired me to try it.
I love your blocks!!! They make me smile:) Thank you for these wonderful giveaways!!!

I am ready to start paper piecing! Very cute block
I love your ready for rain umbrella girl. It is perfect for where I live (Oregon) since we get lots of rain which I love for the beautiful flowers it brings. I like the detail paper piecing allows. Hope I win.
Would love the chance to win a copy of this book. Very nice block you made!

She is just too cute and her purple house perfect! It makes me want to try paper piecing !
I love the May Showers block. I would love to win my very own copy of the book.

That is so cute. Opens up a whole lot of ideas for other blocks doesn’t it?
What a cute block! Really love it. Thanks
Your block is sooooo cute! I love paper-piecing too.
Sue is so sweet! I can hardly wait to get my hands on this issue…one way or another!
Your block is so cute and I love it with the house! Paper-piecing is my favourite piecing method and this would be so fun to do 🙂
Your little girl looks so cute! What a great idea to add her to a house! Now.. for a puddle, or hand stitched rain drops!
The darling girl in your block is just perfect for the weather here in Vermont! Rain, rain and more rain. She’s just adorable, and I love your paper-pieced projects! Thanks for sharing and congratulations on having your block in 100 Blocks, Vol. 5. I’d love the magazine!

Sweet Sue is really sweet I just love here. Congrats.
Thanks for the chance to win.
Love your block–it’s so appropriate for living in the pacific northwest…..
this block is awesome. I have done paper piecing only once and could not get the hang of it. Maybe I should try it again now that I have been quilting and sewing for a couple of years.
Your block is so creative and i love the detail. Each block with different backgrounds shows how versatile your design is. Thanks for sharing.
I am not good at paper piecing but you certainly are! awolk at rogers dot com
Sweet Spring block! I am going to give this one a whirl! Thanks for sharing!
Your block is delighful. thanks for the tips on how you secure your label too. I do my sleeves like that (secure the top within the binding first), but I never thought about doing the label that way..what a time saver. And you would be sure to have the label on when the quilt is done. I have several quilts that are “owed” labels, and I know if I used your method, they would be there right now!
nice block, haven;t tried paper piecing yet but plan on it
What a fun block! I have enjoyed Sunbonnet Sue and Sam, but never dreamed that there could be a paper-pieced version.
Such a cute block!
Oh so cute block. Thanks for sharing and participating.
Cute block. Haven’t done much paper piecing, but would like to try.
Your block is so fun, love sun bonnet sue. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
I’m making a sun bonnet sue with a Dresden skirt
I have been following your website for about two years now. I don’t know how I found you but have saved all the Harry Potter patterns and have been saving the Hobbit patterns. I saved all the Garden Party patterns too. I just retired a month ago and have so much sewing to catch up on. I am currently finishing a work in progress for about 5 years now, a black, yellow and white quilt which is almost finished for my younger daughter. I have a Victorian costume to make for a steampunk convention for my older daughter. I have many projects and am going to try the 12 in 12 UFO challenge. Thanks for inspiring me.
Living in southeastern Alaska in a rainforest, this little girl would right in. She certainly needs that umbrella. I would love to have her pieced in my quilt.
Your block is just adorable, and I love paper piecing!
Goodness, I thought you were a neighbor of mine. The rain just won’t stop and winter won’t leave. Grump, grump. I wondered who made that little cutie with the umbrella. Yes, I have done some paper piecing and it is great for accuracy.
Your block is amazingly adorable, Jennifer! Congratulations and thanks for a great giveaway. brown(dot)k[at]centurytel(dot)net 🙂
Cute Sunbonnet Sue variation! Thanks for entering me in your giveaway.
This block is adorable! I have only done a little paper piecing but it is on my bucket list to try and do more. I think this block would inspire me to do some more.
Such a fun block. Thanks for the tips. Very nice blog.
Very nice block you did

Your block is ABSOLUTELY adorable!! I have checked out your site in the past, and love it. You have a wonderful talent and are so generous in sharing your patterns. Your work and enthusiasm is inspiring. When I get a few current projects finished up, I would love to do some more paper piecing. (I have done one small project so far)
Yay! I don’t think I’ve congratulated you yet. so Congratulations! 😀
I really love May showers and the 100% Chance of Showers is adorable. I’m definitely heading out on the 8th to see if I can find a copy anywhere in town 🙂
What an amazing and creative block! So nice to see fun paper piecing blocks in the magazine…can’t wait to sew it!
Oh, rainy Sue is very cute! I love paper-piecing too, now that I use Peggy Martin’s Quick-Strip Paper-Piecing method! I love the swirly Moda fabrics, and I would sure love to use some in one of my quilts. And I would love those cute fairies, too, because my nieces are such girly-girls princesses and they love TinkerBell. Thanks so much and congrats!

Your May block is adorable!
Love the block! I will be sewing this one up for sure. Haven’t done a gazoodle of paper piecing so I’m appreciative of the paper removal tip, and also sharing the mindset of a small piece is just like anyother only with less stitches. Seems the smaller the pieces are, the more heebie geebee I get! I plan on sewing this block up for my 4 yr old son who LOVES umbrellas. Perhaps some pirate or construction truck fabric for the umbrella and coat and voila! Congrats on the success of your block….and love the quilt too. What a great house (siding)!
Hello Jennifer,
may showers is beautiful. Thanks for the opportunity to win a copy of the magazine.
happy days.

I’m still working on my PoD blocks but I can’t wait to make some paperpieced Sue blocks…
I’ve just started paper piecing and really love this little girl!
I would love this book!! THanks for the chance to enter!
I hope that you are so, so proud!!! I love this pattern – Sue is adorable, and piecing the different panels together to make a larger “picture” quilt-let is absolutely fantastic! Ooooohh, I’d love to win a copy of the mag, but in case that fails, I’m still on the lookout at the local fabric shops! 😀
It’s so nice that’s your block in the book. Congratulations!
So nice your block is in the book. Congratulations.
I love your May showers block! Congrats on it being included in the book. Thanks for the
