September Block of the Month

New Beginnings Block of the Month

Wow - it's September already!! Back to School time AND back to quilting!!!

I've been busy working on my block of the month and have just added the September Block for our New Beginnings Block of the Month quilt to Craftsy!

September Block - now on Craftsy

 Here is my September block, using my selection of cream, navy, turquoise and orange batiks. I really love how all of the blocks are coming together and how they look when they are arranged on my design wall. I can't wait to get them all finished so that I can assemble them into my quilt.

Once we've posted all of the year's blocks we will post two different patterns for finishing the blocks into a quilt top. 

Check out Craftsy to see all of the blocks that have been posted so far and to download the free General Instructions.

August block is now available!!

Our New Beginnings Block of the Month program is moving right along and the August block is now available for download.

Here is my block - made with my awesome selection of batiks. As you can see, I've used a couple different cream batiks, a navy one, a turquoise and a peach as my accent fabric. This block is one of our more complex one and I really like it!

As I've been making the blocks I've been pressing all of the seams open - I'll admit, not one of my favourite things to do, but I'm sure that I will appreciate it when I start assembling the quilt top.

Here is a close-up showing my beautiful batik fabrics.
