My block was Lattice and although I only had to make one block this pattern was so cute and really quick I decided to make the crib-size quilt.
I used Lori Holt's Vintage Happy line and it worked out just perfect because this book gives cutting instructions for fat quarters and Lori has these wonderful prints in her lines that are already fat quarter size. So if you purchase 1 yard you get 4 different fat quarters and that's what my pattern called for, see...perfect!
I was having so much fun making this quilt that I made half-square triangles right away from my leftover block pieces and I used them on the back along with some yardage.
The book includes 12 quilt patterns in 4 different sizes, Crib, Twin, Lap or Queen. The instructions are really clear and easy to follow. I think all of the quilts are really fun and they go together so quickly.
Fat Quarter Shop has generously given me a copy of the book to giveaway to one of you! Just leave a comment here and I'll pick a winner Monday, September 1st! (September already, really?) As always you can just say hi or hey or if you want tell me what blocks you've seen so far and what fabrics you might like to use to make them. I think that everyone has done such a great job and they all have put their own personal touch on them. It's so much fun to see. Good Luck!
Visit these other stops on the tour to see more blocks from the book!

Thanks for the chance!
I love the vintage feel your quilt has! And your pieced back is adorable:-)
Your quilt is so pretty. I have to say that I love the back as much as the front, in fact great backs are now becoming more important to me because then you get a truly reversible quilt. Thanks or a great giveaway too. x
Just adorable! Quick, easy, bright and cheery. And that back! Wow! Such a pretty fritillary visiting your flowers, too!
Thanks for hosting. Mrscummings2u at Gmail dot com

I am very new to the quilting world and am also intimidated by a lot of it. I love this lattice design and think I could handle it in a small size! I just may give it a go! Love it!

I really love what you did with the back of your quilt! I'm still working on my imagination when it comes to the back of my quilts. Thanks for a chance at a giveaway! <3
Your quilt is so pretty! Thanks for this giveaway!
what a beautiful quilt. The fabric you chose is perfect for a baby, but I could see this being changed completely by using a dark lattice with bright solids in place of prints.

That's really sweet, and I love the bonus block on the back.

Great work on your cot quilt! I can see I would have EVERY quilt in this book on my to-do list - they all look fantastic!
It's been so much fun visiting all the blogs and seeing what everyone is doing.

I've visited all the Fat Quarter Style bloggers. Everyone has done a great job introducing the new blocks to us. I have two favorites that I'd like to make very soon. They are Sparklettes and Raindrops. I have some Kate Spain Terrain FQ which I've been hoarding that would look very nice in the Sparklettes quilt. I think ombre shades of solid colors would look great as Raindrops - on a drizzly gray background.
I love the look of your quilt, and also the pieced backing.
Your quilt is beautiful and this book looks awesome! Thanks!
