Hello! If you are new here, welcome. And if you have been here before, welcome back! We are so excited that today is our turn to participate in the Moda Friendship Blog Hop.
If you haven't been following the blog hop, you must go back and check out everyone's posts. Each Moda designer has a quilt block with the pattern included. Just think what you could make! You could pick your favorite block and make a simple table runner or think big and make all the blocks into a beautiful quilt. For inspiration on what others are doing, click here.
We would love, love, love to make a big quilt with all the blocks, but unfortunately, we haven't had time. So if any of you accomplish that task (especially with Sweetwater fabric), let us know and we will feature your quilt on our blog. But we do have our block. Here it is using our Noteworthy fabric:
You can find the pattern here.
Next up, we have spring on our mind. Maybe because we've had snow here in Colorado for the past week or so. Did you know that Easter is right around the corner? In fact, it isn't in April. It is in March this year. Yes, March. Chances are, it will be cold and windy here on Easter, but this may brighten our day. Here is our Spring Pail:
And one in blue:
You can purchase the kits for the basket in our shop.
Finally, we want to give you a chance to win some fabric. One lucky winner will receive a collection of fat eigths of our entire Noteworty collection!
Just leave us a comment and let us know the very last thing you have sewn. Or, you can tell us what is the next thing you would like to make. I know what mine is. I would like to make this. If you click on the link, it will take you to Camille Roskelley's Farmer's Wife quilt. I know that's not going to happen, but I can dream, right? Good luck, and we will choose a winner next week.
Oh, and check out the other designer's blogs to get more block patterns!

About to sew a clothes pin bag. The front will have a my cross stitched houndstooth silhouette of a rooster and hen. It was supposed to be a Christmas present but a birthday coming will do!

My local quilt shop is doing this Moda Quilt Along as a "3 Blocks" a month BOM, and guess what, in January when I joined, I decided to use Noteworthy!! I love your fabrics, and I am fussy cutting the "sayings" from the fabric to be the center 3 inch square in each block.
I will gladly send you a photo when it is finished. Thank you for your giveaway.
Posted by: Janan | Sunday, March 03, 2013 at 06:51 AM
Love Noteworthy! The last thing I made was a mini bookshelf quilt for my daughter's 15th birthday (just last week) and before that was some Noteworthy coasters! Next on the agenda? A little 'poof' (mini ottoman) for my great niece's 3rd birthday. Thanks for the giveaway.

Wow I love that pail! I am working on library bags for my sons, I let them draw on some white fabric with Sharpie Stained Markers and I am putting their art work on the front of their bags!

I made a Batman wallet for my grandson's 6th birthday last week. Gave it to him last nite and he loved it!
Posted by: Gina S. | Sunday, March 03, 2013 at 05:37 AM
I've seen so many cute patterns made out of Noteworthy lately, it would be hard to choose, but a hexy-theme quilt would be fun.
Posted by: Linda S | Saturday, March 02, 2013 at 10:38 PM
The Farmer's Wife quilt is on my list of things to do. I fell in love with it the first time I saw the book, and have wanted to make it ever since!
Posted by: crspy16 | Saturday, March 02, 2013 at 08:55 PM
I am making rows for the Lori Holt Row-Along! Quite a few of your fabrics are in my very scrappy rows.
Posted by: Karen O | Saturday, March 02, 2013 at 08:20 PM
Just finished Plant a Garden with Noteworthy. It was tons of fun and I machine blanket stitched the scalloped strips. Really looking forward to making the cute flower pot table runner and now the spring pail. Thanks for sharing your friendship block - love pinwheels; and thanks for sponsoring the adorable Noteworthy fabric giveaway!

The last thing I made was a wool quilt using the wool of Independence Trail. The next thing is a Fig Tree Pattern of Card Tricks. I love the Noteworthy line. That pretty pale bluy with printing on it is my favorite.

Oooh your block is gorgeous, but then anything would look good in Noteworthy, it is my new ultra favorite fabric line :) I am currently working on a quilt using Cluck Cluck Sew's Spin Cycle pattern and Kissing Booth fabric.

The last thing I made was my son's Halloween costume: a "WRITER" vest like the one Nathan Fillion wears in "Castle". From scratch, no pattern. My "pile" of projects includes a Halloween table runner, a vest, with hopes for a Family Tree quilt. But there is never enough time!

I'm just putting the binding on a scrappy string quilt, but of course have already started piecing the next quilt. Why finish one thing when I can have several on the go? Hmmm....
