Welcome!!
I'm so glad you are here!
I was pretty excited when I first found out my block was going to be in 100 Blocks Vol 4. It still doesn't feel like it's 'real'... I keep pinching myself.
Here it is... County Crossroads
I used fabrics from one of my favorite Moda lines "Neptune" by Tula Pink.
The design process started with a pad of graph paper and colored pencils.. and after many ideas.. this is the design I settled on.
I must admit that I was so impressed with all the blocks in this issue! I honestly feel like I am still in "Quilting Kindergarten" compared to some of the amazing blocks in this issue!
Here is an example of what 9 of my County Crossroads blocks would look like together.. it gets an entire different feel doesn't it?
The magazine will be available for sale within a week. But for now.. if you want to get your hot little hands on a copy, just leave a comment.
I will be selecting 2 winners.. one for a magazine...
and a second winner will get a magazine AND this lovely charm pack of 6 inch squares.
Thanks again for stopping by!
Happy "touring".
