Watermelon Summer New Block Blog Hop: Day 3

Hello again!

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 – Stephanie @Late Night Quilter
Hannah @Modern Magnolia Studio
Cindy @Stitchin At Home
Abby @Hashtag Quilt
Lisa @Sunlight in Winter Quilts
Carrie @Chopping Block Quilts
Brianna @The Iron and Needle
Tish @Tish’s Adventures in Wonderland
Jan @The Colorful Fabriholic
Sarah @Smiles Too Loudly
Beth @Cooking Up Quilts
Leanne @Devoted Quilter
Liz @LizzyClips Design
Kim @Leland Ave Studios
Kitty @Night Quilter

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 Sunday, September 6th 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 Stephanie's blog.

    I once again visited each of the blog sites to uncover such delightful unique quilt blocks. Late Night Quilter and her Geese At The Crossroads is a fantastic block. The Iron and Needle blog by Brianna who created the block called Wings is one I will surely be making as soon as possible. Tish's Adventures in Wonderland created the block Watermelon Taffy that truly inspired me to learn the art of designing is my absolute favorite today. I do follow by email and pinterest. Thank you for this amazing blog hop and spectacular give away prizes. I hope that you have a wonderful creative day and am so looking forward to tomorrow also. brend_ack@yahoo.com
