Once again our wonderful friends at Quiltmaker have invited us to be part of their 100 Blocks blog hop.  This is Volume 12 and our block is #1105!  


I was learning how to Zentangle when I did this block.   Kinda reminded me of that process.




Just add a quick 3" border to make a great pillow top.


Or make it up in red for a Christmas or Valentines pillow

Turn it into a wall-hanging by adding some simple blocks for borders.


Now for the fun part!!  We will be giving away a 100 Blocks Volume 12 to three lucky winners



Just leave a comment on our blog and your e-mail so we can contact you.   Once we know our winners we will post them here on our blog and will contact you via e-mail to get your mailing address. 

Thanks for stopping by!!
