A Blooming Bunch Fabrics by Maureen McCormick

This beautiful blooming bunch of fabrics was not in shops when I made my sample block,

so I sewed my stash and chose

 Petals and Pots by Riley Blake Designs

for my fabrics.

I started with these fabrics Posted Here

I had some fun with the block and added some improv applique.

I called this "Appli-Play!"

Here is my finished pillow top. 

I love the way my improv applique shapes blazed this classic star block outward. 

This is the back of my pillow.

I added golden yellow decorative snaps to secure the envelope closure.

This pillow looks wonderful with the

Rhapsody Fabrics  in my Poppy Lane Quilt

that I finished Finished Here.

With the small scraps from making my Blazing Star Block

I made this scrappy mug rug Posted Here

I love this wonderful Fat Quarter Shop QAL project!

Thank you, Fat Quarter Shop for this fun pattern and sew along! 

Hope to see you sewing this block pattern soon!
