The white-coral-white stripe combinations remind me of the taffy candy that can be found at beach boardwalks everywhere in the summer (represented by the blues and greens), and I could see it being used in a decorator pillow or in a quilt with sashing to separate the blocks that could be oriented either vertically or horizontally. The block that I have designed is named Taffy Pull. It is such an honor to be involved in this project and with so many talented quilters. The three organizations that will receive quilts are Meyers Center, a non-profit organization that helps kids that are physically and/or mentally disabled prepare for school, Teen Impact, an organization that helps kids with cancer, and Project Linus, an organization that gives handmade blankets to critically ill children. The hosts are going to finish three quilts from the over 60 completed blocks to donate to charity. At least three of these vibrant colors are used by each blogger participant. Fabric-Quilt provided each participant free of charge a fat eighth bundle of Prairie Cloth Solids in the Watermelon Summer Palette that includes the following colors: chartreuse, coral, lapis blue, turquoise, aqua, and white. There are also giveaways on each of the hosts’ blogs and on the Inspired by Fabric blog, so please check them out. I can’t wait to make a sampler quilt using these tutorials. The tutorials already posted are absolutely awesome. And the final group which I am a part of is hosted by Terri Childlike Fascination on September 3rd. The bloggers who posted tutorials on September 2nd were hosted by Late Night Quilter. Meadow Mists Designs hosted the group of bloggers who posted tutorials on September 1st. The four-day Fabri-Quilt New Block Blog Hop sponsored by Fabri-Quilt and Inspired by Fabric kicked off on August 31st and was hosted by Quilting Jetgirl.
