Block Mania Bog Hop-Super Grad and Puppy Update

 

We have made it to Block 10 of the Block Mania Blog Hop! I can’t thank you enough for following along and coming back for this next free block! Have you made any of our previous blocks yet? If so, please send us a picture at Heidi@thewhimsicalworkshop.com or share it with us in the comments below. I would love to see what you’ve created! 

If this is your first time stopping by for a free block, welcome; we’re so glad you’re here! Make sure to subscribe to be notified each month for the free blocks.


We are quickly coming to the end of 12 blocks. Once we finish them I will be turning all of these adorable blocks into one great quilt pattern. I cannot wait to see how this turns out!

The theme for this month’s block was “Graduate”, with a corresponding color palette of Red White and Blue. This month's Challenge was to figure out which animal should be the graduate. Since we just adopted a Great Pyrenees puppy who will be starting obedience school soon, my inspiration was sitting right next to me!

Now let’s get started crafting our newest block! In this month's companion video, I went over the inspiration for the block and how to finish the edges! I also share with you an update on our sweet puppy, Doodles who is almost 6 months old. You can check out the video below

I hope you have enjoyed this month’s free block. Make sure to visit all the other designers on the Blog hop to collect your free Graduate blocks!

Each month a group of top designers in the quilting industry will each create a FREE 12” block that fits the month’s theme and color palette. We will all post our blocks on the first Tuesday of the Month. You can hop from blog to blog to learn more about each designer and collect your free block pattern. This month’s theme is “Graduate” and I created our adorable "Super Grad" block for you. The pattern is available on our website. The Block Mania Blocks will only be available free of charge for the first two months afterwards they will be for sale for $5.00 as a digital download.
