Block 6 Sort of, LOL

Here is secret block 6 - Star of Glory by Patty Clayton:

I'm sure you can guess that this was a paper pieced block.  And I say sort of because there are a total of 76 little pieces of fabric in the block, and in the short time line I had, I only could make 1 unit.  With the wonders of computer manipulation, here is what it will look like when the other 3 are done - LOL.  I can see this block in a quilt with lots of star blocks.

Giveaway still on - go to the May 2nd post and you'll see all the details on how to win an issue of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, v. 3.

Block 5 of the Secret Blocks

Here's my 5th block I made from the Quiltmaker v.3 issue:

This one is posted on Quiltmaker's blog tour today.  You can head over there here  to see the designer's version and others.  You don't want to miss going there because they will have a giant giveaway at the end of the blog tour and you might win some fabulous prizes!  This is Magic Squares, #285, by Konda Luckau from Moose on the Porch Quilts.  The issue has blocks done in many techniques from piecing to applique to paper piecing at all levels.

If you'd like to win an issue, comment, follow or both to get chances to be the winner.  You can also go back to my previous posts and leave a comment there to increase your chances. 

Good luck!

Block 4 of the Secret Blocks

This was my favorite of the ones I made. It's called Wedding Cake and is #237. It was designed by Melissa Harris and Arlene Stamper of The Quilt Company. I so love chocolate, so I named my block "Anniversary Cake" because I think of it as richer than a wedding cake. I may make this into a wall hanging for our next anniversary in November. It will be our 43rd.


Leave a comment, follow or both to be in the drawing for the issue of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, v. 3. You can leave a comment on each day I reveal a block and be entered, so you'll have several chances. Ends May 7th at 8AM.

It was fun making this cake!
