I'm so thrilled to be participating in the Woodcut Blossoms Blog Hop to celebrate designer pal Heidi Pridemore's new signature line with the fabulous folks at Island Batik. Her line? Woodcut Blossoms, of course! And who doesn't love a luscious line of purples, blues and creams? I know - sounds fabulous, right?
Here's the full line, in all of it's glory! Isn't it wonderful? And I was lucky enough to get to sew with some of these delicious fabrics. Want to see what I made?
This is the Prickly Star block, which has a fun twisted center. Paper piecing it makes it super simple and accurate. Guess what? You can grab a FREE copy of this block pattern, just for reading this blog post. Amazing, right?! But hurry, the download is good from September 9th through November 9th, 2022. After that - pffftt! Gone!
Love the look of the block? Well, I do too! In fact, so much that I have a new pattern release for you - Flock!
You can grab a preorder of it here AND get 25% off with the code FLOCK25. The redraft is scheduled to ship September 30th, 2022. But hurry - this preorder, prerelease price is only good for a few weeks. The preorder special expires September 16th! And then, like the free block.....pffftt!
I loved this line so much, I played around with a few recolors of some of my existing patterns. It really is a lovely line!
Here is Elementz, my nine month BOM pattern, colored in Woodcut Blossom. Isn't it lovely? Yes, you get your very own copy of Elementz here on my website. Click here!
I recolored Dazzle in two different colorways - a blue and purple. Blue is above - and I love it! Grab your copy of Dazzle here!
But the purple version is fun too! I love the pop of magenta in the center of the diamonds. Which is your favorite? I can't pick either.
Check out the other participating designers and all of their wonderful creations, all using the wonderful Woodcut Blossoms line. Psst....they have free projects for you too!
