Adopt These Blocks!

The Quilty Orphan Adoption is over. Libby in TN (#2) won the hexagons, and Chris Sullivan (#19) won the plus signs. Congratulations, I hope these blocks help you create something beautiful!

Dear readers, I’m posting today as part of the Fall 2016 Quilty Orphan Adoption. This event, happening over at Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework, connects unwanted quilt blocks with adoptive homes. Will you open your heart and sewing schedule to some of my orphans?

First, I have three huge hexagons (16” flat side to flat side, 19” corner to corner) from Jaybird Quilts’ Park Bench pattern, featuring Carolyn Friedlander’s Botanics collection. There is a tiny cut in one of the exterior triangles of the mustardy hexagon; I’ll send along an extra snippet of that fabric in case you want to mend it. I also have two 12½” squares available. These are from Meadow Mist Designs’ Outlined Plus pattern, and they feature fabric from Basic Grey’s Mon Ami line. I’ll happily ship these lots to anyone in the United States free of charge. (If you’re outside the U.S. and want them, you’ll need to pay shipping.) You’re welcome to do whatever you wish with these blocks.

If you’re interested, leave a comment, citing whether you want the hexagons, pluses, or both. You have until 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 20, to comment (I’m on the East Coast of the U.S.). I’ll let the random number generator pick the lucky recipient(s).

I look forward to passing these blocks on to a quilter or two who can give them a good home! Follow From Bolt to Beauty Content by Topic Find Me Here ... And Here
