Spring Quilt Market - Installment 3

As I had mentioned, one of the fun parts about Market is meeting new people and seeing old friends.  One of the new people that I had met mentioned that Alma Alan of Blackbird Designs blogged that my Fit to be Geese ruler is the best flying geese ruler out there!  I was SO excited and flattered!  I love Blackbird Designs in everything they do.  I love their applique, there pieced designs and especially their fabric.  I was so honored and I even got goosebumps!  I have been unable to find the post but if anyone does, let me know.  I would love to see it!

I promised that I would show you some of my new patterns using my upcoming fabric line, Memories of Provence.  Here are they are:
 Echo
61" x 85"

Monte Carlo
60" x 80"

Both patterns along with Secret Garden will be on my website soon.

Also, Sue and I designed a Block of the Month using Memories of Provence.  We have put a unique twist on it by designing two quilts using the exact same amount of fabric.  That way, you can decide which quilt you would like to make.  Watch for your local quilt shop to be offering the block of the month later this year.  Bundlesandbolts.com will be offering the block of the month as a pattern and kit but not as a monthly installment.

Don't forget to stop by tomorrow for the blog tour with Gudrun Erla from GE Designs with her new book, Table Talk.  I will be giving a copy of her book away so make sure you come by and leave a comment.


 See you tomorrow!

The new patterns are wonderful, Monique! I can't wait to see your new fabric up close, too! We just returned from a little trip and what did I buy in a tiny quilt shop, but Gudrun's new book! It has so many projects I want to make!
Cheers!

Happy Friday!  Today is my day to join in the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Blog Tour .  Yes, that means that I have a block included in the magazine!  The tour has been going on all week so make sure that you check out the other designers that are involved in the tour.   Here is the cover of the magazine: It's so great that they have printed 7 - 100 Block Magazines!  I am also so proud to say that I have been in all 7 issues!  My block is called Tiara...do you sense a theme these days?  I have a book coming up next week (squee!) called Diamond Traditions and I called this block Tiara...do you think I'm a princess?!  My husband sure thinks so!  Anyway, here is my block: I used the purple colorway of my fabric with Maywood Studio, Royal Gardens .  I love the way this block has a center that you can fussy-cut or use an interested print inside.  It was fun to make and there are so many possibilities to make a quilt with it....

Hi Everyone! Glad you could drop by for the blog tour.  It is day 2, make sure that you check out all the featured bloggers on the tour.  You can see who is blogging today and all week on Quiltmaker's Blog . My block is called Celtic Cross #775.  Here it is: When the editors of Quiltmaker's first decided  to do this, they had given out forms and information on how to submit a block.  So, I decided to go ahead and try it.  I am so glad that I did!  I have been in every volume and I can't believe that we are on Volume 8!  They have a great thing going.  I thought that I would give you some setting options for my block.  Here are a few: Set straight with no sashing For the second quilt, I added sashing and cornerstones in the quilt and they are shown above.  Now for the giveaways!  Quiltmaker will be giving an issue of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Volume 8 to one lucky winner.  I will also be giving a signed c...

Welcome! It is so nice to once again be included in the magazine and the blog tour!  I love to hear from everyone and hope that you will comment for a chance to win a copy of the magazine plus much more! The block that is included in the Quiltmaker 100 Block Volume 5 is called Diamond Eyes.  It may not be a surprise to some of you that one of my favorite elements in a block and quilts as well, is the diamond shape.  I think it adds beauty to the quilts and some different elements.  Here is my block: Since my husband has been ill and I have been working on getting ready for Market, I decided to do some give-aways instead of a project.  I hope that you understand and although I don't have alot of time, I can do some great give-aways.  If you make a comment, you will be entered to win one of the following: First, the magazine is giving away a copy of the Quiltmaker 100 Blocks Volume 5. Second, my newest rulers will be debuting at Market....
