Beat the Heat Blog Hop + Giveaway!
Today kicks off Week 1 of the blog hop and my day to share my project with my "SURPRISE" fabrics from our first ambassador box that we received in January! You can check out my unboxing video here.
My surprise fabric line is Blueberry Patch! I really love this fabric line and all the variations of blue. I even had a quilt in the catalog using this line, Hidden Stars! I decided to recreate my Square Stones Pattern in Blueberry Patch since the pattern can utilize each print!
I love the different blues contrasting with the Island Batik White! One of the things I love about working with Island Batik fabric is just how flat I can get my blocks! Pressing seams is a breeze!
Quilt Stats:
- Pattern: Square Stones by Me!
- Finish Size: 48"x60"
- Fabric: Blueberry Patch from Island Batik
- Batting: Hobbs Heirloom 80/20 Batting
- Thread: Aurifil 2024 50wt for piecing, So Fine 470 for longarm quilting
You can pick up the Square Stones Quilt Pattern from my pattern shop!

It looks great. Those blues are wonderful.
If I’m lucky enough to win, I’d make a donation quilt for my qullting group. Thanks.
