Such exciting news! On November 17th, Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks from Today’s Top Designers, will be released. Be sure to look for it at your favorite quilt shop or newstand.
I’m honored to be included in this wonderful publication. I can’t wait to see all the different blocks from other designers!
For my block, I decided to use my Belle Fleur fabric, for Avlyn.

I played with different traditional quilt blocks in my EQ6 program and decided on the Square and Diamond block.

I wanted to feature the Mod Floral print in the center of the block and this block fit the bill.

After this floral in the center, I cut out the circular medallions in the outer squares.

Once the medallions were in place, the block started to really take shape. I love it!

Next step, put in the coordinating prints to highlight the focus prints. The EQ software makes it so easy to try out different prints in different places.




And here is the block!
