Today is my day on the Quiltmaker 100 Blocks Blog Tour!
I'm excited to finally get to show you my block! I used Joel Dewberry's Modern Meadow along with some gray solid fabrics. It is Block #285.
Some of you who did the Jelly Roll Quilt Along may think it looks vagely familiar. That's because the block I designed for the JRQA was the inspiration for this block. Here is my Jelly Roll block:
I added some cornerstones in the nine patch to add a repetative element. I made a quilt using sashing between the blocks to echo that repetative element one additional time. You can see another picture of my quilt on page 21 of the same magazine in the Designer's Gallery!
You can create your own sampler quilt from this magazine. It will be in quilt shops next week.
Leave a comment below for a chance to win a copy of this fun magazine!
And check out others on the tour today:
Thanks for stopping by!

I guess I'm first! I love this block! I have to say that it's more interesting than your jelly roll block. Don't hate me for saying that. :-) And, congrats for getting in this magazine! Awesome!
I made the inspiration block and love your new take on it!
Lovely, I like your block!
Great block. Love the colors too. Love your sampler blocks. Thank you for sharing
Very nice block! :)
What a great design your block makes. Gray is on my list of 'must do' quilting. Thanks for sharing a great block.
Love the Joel Dewberry fabric. It is such an intersting block. At first glance it looks like a regular 9-patch, but it has far more detail. With the solid sashing it lets the fabric shine.
I have loved those magazines and look forward to getting the 3rd. the block is so inspiring.
I can't decide which of your blocks I like best. Congrats on being featured in the magazine.
I really like this block. Thank you for sharing it. Take care and God bless, Cory
Nice block and a great quilt.
It reminds me of a block I did in a workshop several years ago. It makes up so cute with the secondary designs when the blocks are joined.
This will. Be a great block for using up scraps.
Wow, the block really does great as a full quilt with sashing. I see some wonderful secondary designs.
I would love to win a copy of this magazine.
Congrats on having a block in the magazine!
Love the block, and especially your idea for a sampler quilt from the blocks in the issue. They certainly look great on the mug!
oh WOW!I can see possibilities with this block!!! Can't wait to try it out.
Great block! It looks really good en masse!
This block is very versatile...I can see it done in a controlled colorway and scrappy, my favorite. Can't wait to see your block in the magazine---congratulations!
I love both these blocks!! Well done!

Love your block and thanks for a chance to win 100 Blocks. Congrats for making it in the magazine!
Love your block. It looks very modern and graphic with the fabrics you used, but could probably made to look more traditional if that was someone's preference. I think that's great!
Moose quilts, Moose quilts...just saying that makes me smile. Great Site. Thanks!
Your block looks very modern, especially made up in contemporary fabrics. I am wondering just how small those tiny squares are!!!
