The Great Escape Block pattern and Block Mania Blog Hop

  

The Great Escape by Heidi Pridemore


We are back with another new block for Block Mania! This time the theme was Under The Sea and our block is called "The Great Escape".

If this is your first time stopping by for a block, welcome; we’re so glad you’re here! Make sure to subscribe to our email list to be notified each month for the free blocks and other exciting news from The Whimsical Workshop.

This adorable block is a new addition to all our Under the Sea Collection. My first sea themed designed project was done back in 2003 and of course we called it "Under The Sea"

This has become one of our most popular patterns over the years and was the springboard for many other designs. Next up I designed "I'm Outta Here". This pattern added some new sea life friends to our adorable little fish and I even made the little worm as a 3-D element to the quilt.  



We were having so much fun with these adorable Sea Life quilts that I went on to design my favorite little quilt called "One Fish, Two Fish..." to use as our class sample for our class Fusible Applique, The Whimsical Workshop Way.

We went on to design a fabric line with Fabri-Quilt several years ago and you can see it here in our "Ollie the Octopus" Pattern

Finally we have started to feature our adorable Fish in Stickers available here. I have had so much fun adding our little fish to my water bottle, sewing machine and anywhere else I need a little whimsy.

If you are new here, lets go over the details! Each month a group of top designers in the quilting industry will each create a 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 block pattern. This month’s theme is “Under The Sea” and I created our adorable "The Great Escape" block for you. The pattern is available on our website.
