Each month a new block (or more) will be posted and a new thread will begin for each new month. I hope many of you will join in and we will have a lot of new quilts to show off in 12 months or less.
You can join in at any time. We'd love to have you! NOTE: Please be sure to "Subscribe" to this thread so you don't miss anything.
This month there are 2 blocks. These were chosen by Debbie Klann (THANK YOU, Debbie!) As always, you can do one, two, or none of them. Your choice. These blocks will be yours, so choose your fabrics and quilt away. Make table runners, quilts, wall hangings, or potholders with them - your choice.
NOTE: All patterns come from The Quilter's Cache/Marcia Hohn. Please read her terms and conditions of use here. http://www.quilterscache.com/TermsPage.html
March blocks: Eddy Stone Light Block http://www.quilterscache.com/E/EddystoneLightBlock.html
Card Trick Block http://www.quilterscache.com/C/CardTrickBlock.html
This next is a bonus block - but it finishes to 8" instead of 12". Southern Belle Block http://www.quilterscache.com/S/SouthernBelleBlock.html
I'd like some more people to select blocks. Please let me know f you would like to choose blocks from The Quilter's Cache/Marcia Hohn (www.quilterscache.com) website for future months, and send me the link(s).
Thank you for joining in. Happy quilting for all!

Here are my 2 (or 3) blocks. I didn't realize that when I picked the blocks out that the Southern Belle block only finished to 8". I tried framing my block with 2" strips but didn't really like the way it was looking. But, some girls might like the way their particular block looks with framing. So, I picked a different block...the Card Trick. I can post the link to that here if anyone wants to do that one instead. I'm really excited that I will have a Christmas quilt when this year is done that will go on our guest bed...the walls are a light blue gray and this Christmas fabric will look really nice with the color of the room!

Love thoses blocks, Debbie. I could figure out the sizes to make the smaller block to 12" finished, if anyone wants.
I love your fabric choice, too!

Thank you! I've had that fabric for quite awhile. I thought I'd be able to get maybe 20 blocks from what I have but just found out that Moda is releasing that line again along with a couple of other prints and it's coming out next month! So now I can add a few more and maybe make a bit bigger project! |

Terri Quinn or myself will be choosing block links from quilterscache.com for April. I will post ASAP. Thank you!
I have a lot of blocks to catch up with. My year has gotten ahead of me, it seems. LOL!
