“Diagonal Delight” with Madame Samm!

Posted on Leave a comment

Hi everyone!
Tomorrow I’ll be guest blogging over at Madame Samm’s.  She has been featuring a series of guest bloggers over that past month, each with their own unique block design.  Over the past year I have been experimenting with blocks that interlock – where one block seems to flow into the other in a seamless way – and this block is no exception.

Introducing “Diagonal Delight”…

On her own she doesn’t look like much, but look what she can do when multiplied…

 If you are looking for a tutorial to make this block, hop on over to Madame Samm’s

Now for the giveaway – this one is easy.  I’ll be giving away three of my patterns that exemplify this interlocking block idea:  Garden Paths, Bedazzled, and Beribboned.  All you have to do is follow (if you don’t already) and leave a comment on this post telling me which of the above designs is your favorite. 

That is it!  Don’t forget to leave me a way to contact you should you win!

Deadline is a little longer this time – Thursday, December 1st at midnight.

Happy sewing!
Amanda

#7, Mom to Ryan and Sis, who loved the Swoon quilt kit. Me too!!!
You all are the best – you put me over the 1000 followers mark.  We are celebrating here!
Fat Quarter Shop will be announcing their own winners based off of the comments made on their post.  Just to make things fair I deleted any multiple entries on this blog.  Sorry for the confusion!  I’ll be back tonight to talk about my Madame Samm block design and maybe there will be a giveaway with that too!  (And next month we will have an absolutely fantastic Bejeweled giveaway courtesy of Robert Kaufman.  Think Modern Whimsy fabric!) 
Happy sewing everyone!
