My NYC Metro Mod Guild April Queen Bee is my good friend Maren @The Agitprop Quilter.
Take a look at the fabric package that arrived in the mail.
Maren asked us to make a Confetti Block using a pattern from the book Block Party: The Modern Quilting Bee "Megan's Quilt - Party of Twelve"
And here's the finished block.

This was such a fun and easy block to put together. Just put white borders around the sections of colour and then add more white strips to join them together in a 13.5" block.
This is going to be a really fun, crisp quilt when it's finished.

Maren has finished her quilt top - love how this turned out, and I've spotted my block - it's centre-left.
You can take a look at all the blocks that our Bee have made for Maren on my Quilty - Confetti Block Pinterest Board - I'll add more pins as each person in the Bee posts photos of their finished blocks and you can see my NYC Mod Guild Post here too.

I can see why it's called Confetti - and with such pretty fabrics too!
ReplyDeleteGreat block, it is going to make a great quilt.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Chris! It's just exactly what I was hoping for! It's perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled that you like it - I can pop it in the post or shall we have coffee/lunch and do a grand handover!? Email me :)
DeleteNice block Chrissie. I have that book and wasn't convinced by that quilt but this could definitely make me look at it in a new light!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great block! It really will look like a confetti toss when it's all done though! Awesome!
