Watermelon Summer New Block Blog Hop: Day 2

Welcome back! 

We're excited to be sponsoring a blog hop this week featuring our Prairie Cloth Solids, featuring more than 60 bloggers. Each blogger will be sharing a block they've created using a six-fabric bundle of solids. 
And of course, no blog hop is complete without giveaways--over the course of the hop, you'll have eight chances to win a 1/2 yard bundle of the blog hop's color palette (the only hard part will be deciding which blocks to make!). 




 This block hop was organized by four lovely hosts: Yvonne, Cheryl, Stephanie, and Terri Ann, who also selected this refreshing color palette, aptly named "Watermelon Summer." Thanks, ladies! 


The hop runs for four days--Monday through Thursday--and each day you'll have a chance to enter to win a six-fabric bundle (the colors shown above plus white) both here at Inspired by Fabric and on the blog of the day's host.


Here's today's line-up--visit them all for block inspiration!
Host – Cheryl @Meadow Mist Designs
Josi @Avocado Quilts
Stephanie @Quilt’n Party
Cristy @Love You Sew
Sarah @Sarah Goer Quilts
Shelly @The Carpenter’s Daughter Who Quilts
Jayne @Twiggy & Opal
Sharla @Thistle Thicket Studio
Adrian @Making It – Family Food Quilts Crafts
Julie @Pink Doxies
Sarah @123 Quilt
Jane @Jolly and Delilah Quilts
Carrie @The Zen Quilter

 Find the links from Day 1 here.
Find the links from Day 3 here.
Find the links from Day 4 here.

For a chance to win a 1/2 yard bundle of the Watermelon Summer Palette of our Prairie Cloth Solids, make sure you're signed up to follow Inspired by Fabric (either through a blog reader or via email; see options on the right-hand sidebar). Leave a comment letting us know that you follow and letting us know which of today's featured blocks you like best. This giveaway is open through Saturday, September 5th at 11:59 pm EST. We will announce winners for all of the hop's giveaways after Labor Day. 
You'll have another chance to win a bundle today over at Cheryl's blog.

    Follow on email and my favorite block today is hands down, Tumbleweed Crossroads. It has movement and is not your run of the mill block. I like that it took some thoughtfulness both in the designing and the sewing.
