This has been so much fun! found lots of ideas to be inspired and links to the designers sites have been inspiring and refreshing. Yay to all the designers, this is going to be a must have on my birthday/Christmas wish list for this magazine if I am not one of the winners.
Have really had fun looking at all the designers’ blogs and blocks. Can’t wait to have a copy of 100 Blocks of my own to use what scraps and fat quarters are already in my stash and add whatever I’m sure I’ll need that isn’t there. Love balis, batiks and anything fabric! Sew many fabrics, sew little time!
Thanks again for a wonderful week of great designs from fantastic designers to inspire the quilter in all of us!
Thanks for the inspiration…having it all in one place is so efficient.
I am really enjoying this, so much inspiration and so many wonderful blocks!!!
Thanks for hosting such a wonderful tour… so glad that was able to tour along before was “overy.
Yep, I am having a great time looking at new blocks and new blogs! There is soo much talent out there and it is good to see the variety of it. As mentioned once earlier: there should be a “Dear Block” ( or maybe “Dear Blog”) quilt with your 100 blocks in it – maybe in a smaller size to fit them all. Thank you!
These are gorgeous blocks as well…I am excited about this magazine and all the potential for great quilts!
OMG…I would love to win those strips! I’ve got a very special friend to share with. She is always so good about sharing her 2.5″ cut strips with me and whe I say share I mean she not only has to MAIL them to me but she SHARES big time. I would love to return the favor with this win. Thank you! This giveaway has kept me glued to my computer as I must check out every last bit of what you point out and then visit all the designer blocks..they’ve done an awesome job.
What a fun blog hop! So many great new ideas. My head is spinning!
This hass been such a fun Blog Hop. I haven’t paid much attention to blogs in the past, but that has changed this week.
Thank you for a fun trip
Please enter me in the big give away.

The only problem with this Blog Tour is that I have to stop quilting to read the blogs! The giveaways have been great and a marvelous way to share new items with quilters!
This has been so much fun!
So fun! I love the spring blossoms block.
Another day of seeing new blocks and meeting new quilters.
It is fun and a learning experience, to see what is out there in the quilting world.

I adore to make patchwork/quilting, geez, just I’m waiting my luck changes
