Vintage Sunburst QAL - Month 3

 It's Month 3 of the  Vintage Sunburst Quilt Along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop and I have 4 more blocks to share for this month. I just love seeing these blocks come together!!!  

Here are my 2 blocks made with the  8" Vintage Sunburst Paper Piecing pads and  Blossom Basics, in all of the warm tones :)   My centers still need work on these, but I am okay with them :)  Maybe by the last ones I will have a perfect center circle ;) 

And here are my 12" Paper Piecing Pads and the  Blossom Basics, in cool tones :)  You know these are my favorites right, not just because they are a little easier being larger, but because they have purple!!!!   I shared some helpful hints that I have found while making this post in my Month 1 post that you can find here ;)   

 

 The quilt will finish at 64" x 88" so it will be a nice large throw size when complete.   The free pattern for this Quilt Along can be found right here ;)  And my leaders and enders paper piecing cast offs are growing.   This lat time I saved even some of the super tiny pieces, it made for a fun improv block :) 

So do you want to work on your paper piecing skills as well??  Pop over the the Vintage Sunburst Quilt Along page to get all of the details and join me in some paper piecing

Moonbeams Quilt Along - Release 1 - Dove Blocks

Today is the day :)   It's the first 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 Dove Blocks.   And how cute are these blocks, so pretty!!!

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 $10,000!!!  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 :)

February Sew Sampler!!!

Even with a bonus day in February, this month has flown by!!!  But that's okay because with with the end of the month comes a new Sew Sampler Box as well!!     The theme for this month is Trending Tradition and it is just such a cute box filled with gorgeous quilting goodness :) 

How pretty is this Thick and Think quilt pattern!!!!  It is made with a Thick and Think Quiet Grace 2 1/2" Strip set by Kim Diehl for Henry Glass Fabrics.   Kim's fabrics are always so pretty with their bright lights and dazzling darks ;)  

And the notions for this month are just great!! I am so excited about this Sewing Machine Light!!!  At the last retreat I was at, I was thinking, I need a travel light for open sew time.   And wouldn't you know, it just showed up in my Sew Sampler Box, so great!!!   And the quilting needles will go straight to mom, since she is the hand sewer :)   And you know, I just love me some thread, this is Gutermann thread and what a pretty Copper color!!!   

And just a note, there are currently some openings for Sew Sampler boxes, so no need to wait;)   A new year begins in April, so now would be a great time to join in and get ready for the new QAL!!  

And that is February Sew Sampler Box.  I am so looking forward to March, and hopefully quilting some of the projects I finished in February so I can add more to the pile, like this Thick and Think quilt ;)  

Happy Quilting!!!
