My birthday has come and gone and I still have to share my birthday blocks. For the Birthday Block exchange with my Sloanie friends I decided on a scrappy bento box. I have wanted to make a quilt with this block for over 10 years and decided this was my chance. I asked for the blocks to be made in Christmas colors – not necessarily Christmas fabrics (but that would be fun!) and to use Pat Sloan fabric if they had some.
This is the tutorial I asked people to use – Scrappy Bento Box Block Tutorial
Here are my colorful happy blocks so far!
This one arrived after the group photo shoot;) I love the tree fabric, the elves and the fun train track prints.
I plan to make more blocks to make myself a small lap quilt for Christmas. It’s on my list to quilt in November – should give me lots of time to make more blocks!
The giveaway celebrating my 7 year blog anniversary
is still open until Tuesday, March 1.
to win a copy of the magazine
my quilt Joyful Blooms is published in!
With Joy,
Sarah V
