Today’s stop on the Between Heaven and Texas Blog Hop tour has us visiting Melissa and Jake from Generation Q Magazine.

I love their Wonkified Star, based on their logo. What a great way to use up scraps and create a totally unique block each time.

Visit the Generation Q blog to download their Wonkified Star tutorial. Be sure to enter their give-away too to win a copy of Between Heaven and Texas too.

Also, I do hope you’ll make an extra block or two to send to Jennifer of Sew Hooked, as she’ll be putting together the blocks into quilts for The Linus Connection. More info here on this charity initiative.

We have a Flickr group set up for you to share your completed blocks and you can follow along on Facebook too.

Tomorrow, we’ll be visiting with Jennifer from Sew Hooked. Rumour has it she has something even more special than her gorgeous block planned. Her and Marie are being very secretive about it, so I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

WANTED: Your quilts for this week’s Quilters’ Show & Tell event. The theme is Quilts for Mom. Any quilting style is acceptable and unfinished quilt tops are welcome as well.

Today’s stop on the Between Heaven and Texas Blog Hop tour has us visiting Vicki from Quilting Lodge.

I woke Milo up from a sound sleep when I squealed with delight when I opened the email from Vicki with the photos of her block. I was good and did not pick out fabrics for this block yet, but I will be making it into a wall hanging for my office/sewing room in the near future. You’ll have to check Vicki’s blog to see a few layouts for how it looks in multiples.

Without any further ramble, here’s her block: Seeing Stars. I love her colours, but I’m hoping I have enough yellow & orange fabrics in my stash for mine. Or maybe I’ll dig in my batiks box for something special.

Visit Vicki’s blog to download her Seeing Stars tutorial. Be sure to enter her give-away too to win a copy of Between Heaven and Texas.

Also, I do hope you’ll make an extra block or two to send to Jennifer of Sew Hooked, as she’ll be putting together the blocks into quilts for The Linus Connection. More info here on this charity initiative.
