99 Cent Petal Pusher Flower Quilt
The Triangle Sherbet quilt is so much fun to put together. I made mine all in flannel, but this quilt would be wonderful in any grouping… How about starting with a group of Hoffman Batik fat quarters! Yum! It’s easy so it’s great for a beginner and also a quick go-to quilt for the more advanced quilter. The pattern is just 99 Cents!
The Very Quick Quilt (V.Q.Q.) is perhaps the easiest block quilt you can make… Just a square! Shown here in Nearly Christmas prints, imagine it in Kaffe Fassett or 30s prints. Starting with a group of coordinated squares, the V.Q.Q. makes up into a stylish statement… And in multiple sizes. Only 99 Cents!

The States of Modern: North AND South Dakota!
I told you North Dakota was coming! My thought pattern is this… 50 States, 50 Blocks… But a quilt that is set 5 blocks by 10 blocks would be an odd shape so I thought… combine some states! And North and South Dakota, though they have rich, varied and different histories, were an obvious choice to combine into one block with North Dakota on the top (North) andSouth Dakota on the bottom (South!).
