Lets Go to the Hop
Good morning and welcome to the first day of the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Magazine Blog Hop! I am so happy to be included in this great magazine, thanks to everyone at Quiltmaker!
Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks magazine isn't simply blocks. There's information on settings and yardages, a designer's gallery,technique instructions, stitch and beading diagrams and a block tester gallery. And as if that wasn't enough, you can Like them on Facebook and have access to even more Quilty Stuff.
Here's my version of Springtime Spools hot off the sewing machine! You can find and the instruction of page 67 of the magazine!
I couldn't resist a test run on photoshop using Pam Kitty Love. I really like how the fancy little nine patches show up as a secondary pattern.

Your block looks great! I was just leafing through an older issue and just love the variety! I think it's great how you showed what multiple blocks would look like together because sometimes its hard to see just how beautiful it will look from only seeing one block.
Love your block and thanks for showing how a bunch of them would look all put together. Fabulous!
You bet I'd like to win! Thank you for the chance. Thanks also for sharing your block and letting us peek at your new line! I'm in love!
Oh what a lovely block!
I like the Springtime Spools block. I've always like the spool blocks, so 4 spools in one block is great!
I just love blocks that make secondary patterns, this is just so cool! Congratulations on being in the 100.
I love your blocks! I am going to look up SPRINGTIME SPOOLS in the new issue. Really nice!!!
