Aurifil designer of the month

I am so flattered and happy to be featured on the Aurifill blog, as the designer of the month (September).

My Aurifil thread collections: Indelible and Voluminous are great match to my fabrics and you can find them in the craft and quilt shops. You can read more HERE about my Voluminous thread collection.

My task as the designer of the month was to design and make a pattern for the quilt block that was inspired by the color Blue. Be sure to download it!!!

 Here's the collage created with my pics, including the blue hues that inspire me.

Be sure to hop to the awesome Pat Sloan's blog and enter your block version for the chance to win some thread!

Hope you can join,
