Block Heads Block 25 and Giveaway
Corner Garden Block
Good Morning to week 25 of Moda Block Heads round 3. Today I have a really fun block for all of you as well as a giveaway. So make sure you read to the end. =)
Our block today is Corner Garden by Robin Pickens. I really like this block and I think you will have fun making it and choosing the fabrics for it. You’ll find the block pattern on Robin’s blog here.
Corner Garden Block
I always love a flower block. =) For my Corner Garden block, I used fabrics from Canning Day and Apricot & Ash. And you know that I love flowers if you’ve seen any of my flower quilts!
And of course a mini Tulip Market quilt was a must.
And my Gingham Garden quilt:
My most recent flower quilt is Freshly Cut:
And, I just added Paper patterns for the mini Freshly Cut pattern to my shop yesterday. These blocks are half the size of the original quilt–so cute!:
There is just something so pretty about a flower quilt.
I also designed a fun row for the Moda All Stars Book, “All in a Row Again”, that showcased flowers:
Which leads me to my giveaway for this week. There have been quite a few Moda All Stars books released over the last several years. The sales of each of these books is donated to a charity. This makes them especially fun to contribute a project to, knowing that the proceeds will be benefiting a good cause.
Today, each of the Moda Block Heads designers has an ebook to give away for one of the Moda All Stars books that we contributed to. The ebook I am giving away is for All in a Row book (Purchases of this book benefit No Kid Hungry):
There have been two different All in a Row books released. Each one features rows that can be mixed and matched to create a truly one of a kind quilt.
My row for this book was a sweet little birdie/tree row:

Love swimming with my grands!!
I love playing beach volleyball with family and friends!
Favorite thing to do in the summer, besides having morning coffee on the deck, would be planting my flowers and seeing them grow. My Mom gave me my love of flowers, and they bring her close (passed in 2007).
I love digging in my dirt and getting out all those nasty roots that have no business being there! Like wild clover and grass roots! I do that in the spring so my flowers actually have a chance to grow! My mother-in-law really got me interested in zinnias so I have several beds of beautiful beds of them. She passed away last summer and every-time I am in the flowers l think fondly of my second mom!
Beach trip!
My kids and I have gone to the same beach every summer since they were babies! It’s a nice break from the heat of Arizona.
Favorite summer activity? The Iowa State Fair (which is canceled this year) is at the top of my list. But watching baseball games with my best beloved runs a close second.
Hiking and just generally being outdoors.

Too many “favorites” and at the top of the list would be having special days/weeks with our only granddaughter, Kelsey. She loves 2 of my favorites gardening and quilting Since the age of 9 we have taken a weekend each summer to make Christmas Teacher gifts. Because we usually include the bus drivers, secretary and … that means about 10. We started with the 10 minute table runner and have progressed to stockings, mug rugs and so on . Kelsey is now 13 and I hope she continues to enjoy spending time doing our “favorite things”. This summer has been a challenge and still we look forward to Christmas in July making!
Strolling the early morning Farmers Market with the smell of freshly picked vegetables, the Amish booth with their baked goods, and all the baskets of beautiful flowers! It’s a long winter until it opens again…

Summertime means playing in the vegetable garden. I love to watch the garden come to life. It’s so fun to share the bounty with friends and family.
In the summer I love going to the weekly farmers’ market first thing in the morning. The colors and the smells (harder this year with a mask on) are so inspiring. Afterwards I bring my purchases home to bake and cook…yum!
Eating meals out on the patio
I love sitting in a chair and watching chickens all year round but it is especially nice in summer.
I am sheltering in place and quilting.
I enjoy swimming with my almost-grown children and cooking out, long evening walks, sewing in my air conditioned area after!😂
My favourite summer activity is quilting while camping. I would love to win this ebook! Thank you for the opportunity to win.
I enjoy sitting out on our porch reading in the summer.
My favorite summer activity includes anything outdoors.
Anything that lets me spend time with my family
My favorite summertime activities include having more time for adventures with my granddaughter, gardening, and taking care of my yard. When it gets too hot I sew, quilt, and read. What I really miss this year is spending time with my friends so phone calls have to suffice.
So much eye candy! My favorite summer activity is quilting/sewing. I don’t like the heat, & my sewing room is much cooler.
I love to sit out in the garden and hand sew, either hand piecing or counted cross stitch.
I love early morning porch sitting with a cup of coffee. watching the birds at the feeder & the crazy antics of the squirrels. Gets my day started right!
Early mornings in the yard and evenings sitting on the porch and enjoying the cool evening air and saying hi to neighbors passing by 🙂 and the sound of a rain bird sprinkler…it just brings summer to mind instantly 😀
I have had the joy of holding my new granddaughter this summer! Perfect days.
My favorite summer activity is visiting the beach! I love to get my toes in the sand and relax with a good book!
My favorite summertime activity this year will be spending time on our new balcony enjoying the view with family, especially those grandkids!
Gardening when it’s cool outside and sewing when it’s too hot! Is that two favorites? I think they are like ying and yang and go together, but it might be cheating, lol.
