One Block Wonder July Link Up for Brilliant Cluster





What is it about summer that makes you loose track of the days.....
Or maybe that's just me....

This month has flown by and I can hardly believe it's link up time again!

I love both versions of the Brilliant Cluster Quilt samples. With the bold red and white in the Basically Patrick and Cotton Supreme Solids lines, it's crisp and fun and perfect for
 Canada Day, July 1st. Celebration!!





And
The Jardin Gris.....so soft and romantic
it has an old world feel to it....but still fresh and current
I just love them both.





I want to thank


again for the lovely inspiring fabric and for sponsoring our fantastic prize for this month....

so if you haven't started this months block yet...here is your inspiration if the above pictures aren't enough...  ðŸ˜‰

The link up runs till next Friday Aug. 5th at 10am EST
and as always...you just need to have sewn one block to link up and qualify for this months draw!

I can't wait to see what you have come up with....
Don't forget to use #BrilliantClusterQuilt if you share on social media and

Brilliant Cluster, July One Block Wonder Check In

I can't believe July is almost over.......summer is flying by...

Made with Basically Patrick and Cotton Supreme Solids
   
and I've been so busy sewing, I forgot about doing a check in post ....
 Now it's the weekend and I am quilting my 3rd quilt in 3 weeks.....(loving that!!!) and thought I'd take a moment and check in :)

How is everyone making out with this month's block? I've heard so many wonderful compliments and it means the world to me that you take the time to share them with me!! I can't wait to see your blocks!

The link up for July will go live on July 29th and stay open till 9 am on the  5th of Aug. Hopefully that will give everyone the time they need to get their one block minimum done and ready to show!


Don't forget 
has sponsored another great prize




And here's an update on my Brilliant Cluster Quilt made with one of  RJR Fabrics 
 lines Jardin Gris...Just love the soft colours and the romantic feel of this line...




The quilting is done and  it's almost finished... just needs the binding added!! Can't wait to share!!
I shared this already, but worth repeating......
This was a project loaded with problems...mostly my mistakes (from cutting errors to newbie issues with directional fabric)....but I kept pushing on and coming up with solutions and fixes...and I also kept loving it more and more as I went.....it has turned out to be a real stunner. 💛

July's One Block Wonder is called Brilliant Cluster












Now what, right? Same question every month...😉...I bet some of you have skipped down to check out what the block looks like joined together before you every read a word of this blog post....😂
That's ok, I would do the same thing...


Now I know this isn't much of a cluster, but when you are finished making blocks each of your outer corners will make a small star too.
What if you are only making four blocks....
just add a pieced border....




and then turn your cute mini into a fantastic zippered pillow....
I use the tutorial on Sew Mama Sew by Autum


and the back is just as cute...


Well that's it for this month's pattern and tutorial...Can't wait to see what you come up with!

But a few more things to share......

I am working on a quilt top right now in Jardin Gris from RJR Fabrics, using this month's block pattern and it is turning out fantastic.....
I love being able to share two totally different looks for this pattern....

I'm loving these florals and colours...so pretty, soft and tranquil....they just make me smile....




I love how the pink just pops in these blocks!!
