Hi there !!! Welcome to Day 5 of the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks blog tour! I'm very excited to be included in Volume 11! I'm so happy to be one of a handful of people who have been included in all magazines!
My block was inspired by this cute vintage canister I saw on vacation. Love everything about it, the cute heart shaped leaves, simple posy shape and the little scallop border it's sitting on!
I love the simple vintage style, and I feel like I captured that in my block! I can just see this little pot of flowers sitting on the window sill of an little old cottage!
Thanks for including me in your magazine Quiltmaker! It's a great publication, so many interesting blocks, applique and pieced, all techniques included! If you have collected these magazines you know what I'm talking about, if you're new to Quiltmaker's 100 blocks then I encourage you to pick one up!
