Blog hop: V and Co does Vintage Quilt Revival

Share

Hello! It’s my turn to talk about this beautiful book that my friends Katie, Lee, and Faith co authored. 

I feel pretty lucky to know these ladies, they are super talented. 

 First things first this book is hands down one of my favorite. From cover to cover its beautiful.

Inside it showcases 20 blocks. Each with it’s own quilt or project. And then at the end they show you the full sampler quilt made up of all the blocks together.

If anything this book is filled with GORGEOUS colors. All three ladies are have always wowed me with their ability to chose colors that just make quilts from pretty to wow.

 The block I chose was the Spiced Chai block. I used my simple color eggplant ombre and ikat for the block. The instructions were great, and I had great eye candy to look at as I followed the step by steps. I really want to make a blown up one block quilt like my ombre dutchman of this block! (and when I have time I’ll totally do it!) 😉

If you want to find the book, its popping up at bookstores near you in large chain, and also at your local quilt stores as well. And well you can always get your copy from Amazon.

Thank you ladies for letting me be a part of this blog hop. It’s been a gorgeous book to pet…

I’m not the only blogger talking and making these quilt blocks! There are 20 in total bloggers who have made a block and returned and sent them back, as these ladies are going to make 3 charity quilts from the blocks they receive. I can’t wait to see them!
