*** My Blocks ***
This is MY week on the tour and my block is the smaller Snickerdoodle #11 which is also the cover of the book! Here are my sampler blocks, the large one is the Spritz cookie and it's SO fun to make,it's definitely on my list to make a full quilt with it!
Scroll down for my full quilt made with Snickerdoodle!

- I'm making one of each block from the bonus sampler that goes along with the Perfect 5 book. The sampler sheet & photo are at the end.
- I'm using a Pepper & Flax Jolly bar cut in half- there are not that many of these so be sure to get one!
- and the background is my charcoal from Bonnie Lane Fabric
*** The Fabric for my Snickerdoodle Quilt ***
- I used Crescent charm packs and Essential dots for the background
To Make Like mine
- Cresent Line- 3 charm packs
- Essential dot with Gray and Yellow - 2 5/8 yd
- Binding - 5/8 yd - what I used is no longer available, but this gives the same look
- Backing - 3 3/4 yd
*** Closeup ***
- I love the fan quilting!
*** Backing***
- Let me tell you a secret. Years ago I didn't care what was on the back of my quilts. Often it has nothing to do with the front fabric.
- Now.. I really want to back each quilt with matching fabric. .. so I did!
*** Binding ***
- Purple binding just makes this, don't you think so?
*** All Together ***
- I finally could put them all up on the wall, LOVE them!
- This should make a nice lap quilt. I will need to draft a setting soon
- I'm giving away a Fat Quarter shop $50.00 Gift Certificate!

*** Oct 9 to Dec 4- Perfect 5 Sew Along ***
The 'Perfect 5' is a wonderful new book with 16 quilt patterns that use charm packs... thus the '5'! Charm packs are 5" squares. I love how my blocks are coming together
- All the quilts named a cookie, you had me at this one!
- 4 quilt patterns using just 1 charm pack... perfect right? For that 'one pack' you bought.
- 4 that use 2 packs - this is the same as a jolly bar
- 4 using 3 charm packs
- and 4 quilt patterns using 4 charm packs, which is the same as a layer cake!
Details:
- From Oct 9 to Dec 4 I'm sewing along using the quilt blocks in the book to do a version of the Sampler above that the Fat Quarter Shop is doing
