The book is called 75 Fun Fat-Quarter Quilts and this is a blog hop tour! If you go over to my Facebook page, you can enter to win a free copy of the book. Domestic winners get a hard copy and international winners get a digital copy. If you want to check out my book and my individual patterns, head over to my Sweet Jane's Etsy Shop to see what is there.
Let me introduce my quilt! We had to name each variation, so I used names from my family. I made the block a little bigger than I usually do, so the quilt will go together faster. My main quilt has sashing with no borders.
My variations include a border, which increases the size of the quilt to fit a bed. There are directions for no sashing, and also examples of turning the blocks different ways to change the whole look of the quilt. I also have directions for swapping the light and dark fabrics. I wish I could show you more pictures of the variations, but I guess you will need to buy (or win!) a copy of the book for that.
There are 14 different contributors to this book, each with a unique design and a bunch of variations. I am always getting questions from quilters on how to change the quilt patterns they purchase from me....so I know there are a bunch of people out there who will really appreciate written directions for all sorts of variations.
Here are the other stops on the blog tour. You can enter to win for each blog, so good luck!
