Just thought you would like to know that the Martingale link is broken
Cheers
Lynne
These are awesome blocks, I especially like the top one.
Thanks Lynne–the Martingale link is fixed. Good luck to all–have fun exploring today! June
Looks like I am going to have to schedule extra screen time this week. I am off to check today’s links
Just when I thought I could step away from the computer another fantastic idea blooms! I’ve got you marked and will be here daily!!
love the blocks and colour combinations
The blocks are beautiful!! Can’t wait to see all of them in the magazine. How nice to be able to become familiar with the fabric lines at the same time. What a terrific idea!
[...] to visit the blog tour each day this week for inspiration, ideas, and giveaways galore! Check out today’s kickoff post for the featured designers and information on their block [...]
great blog – my first visit!
Oh my! The ideas. How fun this is going to be.
How fun! A drawing. I am interested.

Great blocks. I look forward to seeing them all each day.
I visited all the Top Designers listed for today. Some of them didn’t have any reference to this magazine nor a place for me to leave a note to be included in their drawings.
I visited all the different websites. There were some new ones I’d never been to before. Great idea! This books looks fantastic.
LOVE the blocks you have featured today, and I am now off to designer blogs. Thanks for a great give-away!

This week is going to be fun, and informative! What a great way to meet other quilters and wonderful quilt designers.
Thanks,

Loved Evonne Cook’s block ! This is going to be a fun “project” for the week.
Thanks for a wonderful magazine! Looking forward to getting one of the 100 Blocks issue. It’s a wonderful idea!
What a fun way to see new blogs and wonderful blocks.
Love the idea of the 100 blocks. Congratulations to the designers!.
So much fun! I’ve already checked out all of today’s sites.
I was tickled to find out today, that one of my friends, one who taught me early on the my quilting life, is one of your block designers. You bet I’ll check back each day and not just to see her block. Super idea. Thanks
What a great book and great blocks!
Great idea, I loved looking at the blogs and websites…..
Sheila
I am so excited about getting this magazine! When will it be at my local quilt shop? I want it, I want it!
RE: JoAnne
100 Blocks is shipping now–it could start to show up at quilt shops and newsstands anytime. If your local quilt shop hasn’t ordered it yet, they still have time. The official onsale date is Nov. 17. Enjoy!
what an exciting project ahead! I can’t wait to see what blocks you post each day
I’ve got you bookmarked for sure! (Actually added to my Google Reader)
Thanks so much for the give-away chance! Someone is gonna get lucky!!!
Love from Texas! ~bonnie
love all the blocks and looking forward to each day
Geez I’d like to be entered!
This is a fun cruise
100 Blocks is right up my alley. I have been making my own version of a Dear Jane quilt with blocks I find interesting.
Great idea to give the blocks away!
there are some really great blocks here, hope tomorrows are just as good. I love the way creative people love to share with each other
Thank you! Have just made it to the almost retired generation, and wanted to get back into the swing of quilting each day. I’ve always said it’s best to sew a few pieces together rather than going to pieces. Your ideas are an inspiration.
A blog hop sounds like fun.
Very cool! Please sign me up for the drawing!
