Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks, Vol. 10 Blog Tour

Welcome to my FIFTH blog tour for Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks, I am so excited you’re here!

Be sure to read to the end to learn how you can win a free copy of the magazine.

My block for this issue, Jewels of the Wind, can be found on page 31. This block is extra special because it was inspired by my best friend, Jewells.

She lives in Albuquerque, and fall for her means hot air balloons filling the sky! This amazing photo was taken in Albuquerque by Marvin on Flickr.

See Jewels of the Wind there on the bottom left? This never gets old!

Jewels of the Wind was designed in EQ7!

Here we are, on page 31. This is the version of Jewels of the Wind that I made to share in Quiltmaker’s special videos about Volume 10. Volume 10 means there are now ONE THOUSAND BLOCKS. Isn’t that fantastic?!

Check out the 100 Blocks, Vol. 10 Pinterest Board for more great photos & videos!

I was thrilled to see Jewels of the Wind pop up in the Block Tester’s Gallery on page 94. This sweet summer quilt by Anita Jones includes several of the 100 Blocks from this issue.

More fun colors!

Hoppity Frog

Leave a reply

Today is Make it Mosaic over on Fandom In Stitches. There was HUGE excitement when I first posted the Challenge, but it we only had a tiny turn out. Even so, the entries received were super cute and I appreciate each one!

Most of the time when we have a Challenge or Event on FiS, I’m the organizer. I still like to participate even though it would be silly to award myself, so if there are enough minutes to squeeze out of the day, I’ll whip something up to share.

With that in mind, I created this fun Frogger design! I didn’t play video games much as a kid, but when I did, I tended to play Frogger. My game abilities are limited, as was my pocket money as a kid, so I focused every quarter on the same game in the hopes that I would improve and not completely waste the dollar bills I had to spend at the Putt Putt!

Also, Frogger is just cute.

Frogger (free pattern!)

12 x 12 Grid

24″ as shown

Made from 2 1/2″ squares. You can adapt it to your own needs by increasing or decreasing the patch sizes.

There is also a possibility that I spent a bit of time getting splatted by cars as I tried to safely navigate my frog across the road. It was research, I swear it was research! Play Frogger for free here.
