Today is the second block release of the Moonbeams Quilt Along and I am just so excited! This is Fat Quarter Shop's 11th Annual Charity Quilt Along and they are always my favorite :) The 1st Friday of each month will be a new release for blocks and today are the Ohio Star Blocks. And how fun are these blocks!!! They could make a quilt all on their own ;)
I am using Imaginary Flowers for by Gingiber for my blocks. I just love how bold these prints are and I think they are going to make for a super chic Moonbeams quilt!! And of course, If you want your Moonbeams Quilt to be just like the original (and don't want to wait for the pattern releases :) there is a Moonbeams Quilt Kit and Backing Set featuring Strawberry Lemonade Fabrics by Sherri and Chelsi for Moda Fabrics. But of course, this quilt will look amazing in any fabrics you choose. You can find the Fabric Requirements for the Moonbeams Quilt Along here!!!
So are you joining in with the Moonbeams Quilt Along fun??? You can download the block pattern right here and it is requested for each pattern you download to donate $10.00 to the Make a Wish Foundation :) And I am super excited to say that even though it has just started, Fat Quarter Shop's annual charity QAL has already raised over $17,000!!! The goal is $100,000 which will allow for 16 wishes to be granted. How awesome is that!!! And Moda Fabrics and Fat Quarter Shop have joined to match up to $30,000 :) So many amazing wishes :)
Be sure to share all of your Moonbeams progress on social media with #moonbeamsqal and check out Fat Quarter Shops post for the Ohio Star Blocks for lots more Moonbeams Inspiration!!!
And that's it for the Second Release in the Moonbeams Quilt Along!!!!
