Blue Broken Dishes

This mamma of boys has created another man quilt.   This one features Regency Sussex by Christopher Wilson for Moda.  When I find a great man friendly line like this I just have to design a quilt for my boys around it.  I’m so thankful my boys appreciate a man quilt.

The broken dishes block has sentimental value to me.  I have a quilt made in bright pinks, oranges, and blues my mom made.  It wasn’t finished when she gave it to me.  She was moving and knew she would never finish.  Lucky me!  I’m the only one of my sisters that really sews.  They all know how just choose to spend their time in other ways.  So I got the quilt.  I pulled on my love of this block and add a star sashing to create Nautical Nights.  See how this quilt began here.

You can find the pattern in May/June Quiltmaker magazine.  I have one for a lucky reader.  Leave a comment telling me a block that has sentimental value to you for one chance.  Subscribe to my newsletter, info on the sidebar, for a second chance.  I’ll pick a winner next Thursday.  Good luck!
