Stellar Star {Moda Blockheads Round 2}

Happy Friday, I’m back today to share my Blockheads Block Round 2, Block 1.  I enjoyed being back in my sewing room to make this block yesterday.  It always seems like right after Quilt Market computer work is the name of the game.

For those of you new to my blog, I thought I would share a little bit about myself.  I have been in the quilting industry for probably around 10 years or so.  I began designing quilt patterns shortly after my  youngest daughter was born in 2008 and I worked primarily with fabric companies and magazines promoting new lines of fabric.

I started designing fabric for Moda fabrics in 2014 and just showed my 6th line of fabric last month at International Quilt Market.  My most recent line of fabric, Pepper & Flax, hit stores in April and it has been a lot of fun seeing how everyone is using it.

I was so excited to be a Blockhead designer for this second round of Blockheads!  What fun to be working with such a great group of ladies.  For my blocks I’ll be using a mix of my fabric lines.

This block is called Stellar Star and you can find the free pattern here.

The background print I’ve used in this block is from Pepper & Flax and I love it so much.  It always looks like a beautiful lace design when used as a background.  My 93 year old grandma has made me many doilies over the years and this print reminds me so much of them.

If you need more details about Moda Blockheads, you will want to be sure to visit the Moda Cutting Table blog for more information.  There you will find fabric requirements, all of the designers participating, piecing instructions etc.  So much good information!

These patterns are free, weekly patterns so I’ll be back next week on Wednesday to share Block 2.

Have a beautiful weekend!
