Autumn Sewing – “Lehigh Maze” Quilt Block Tutorial

 Hey Makers,

Autumn is finally here! Last Friday we started off the Fall Season right by dressing up in our fave Autumn inspired outfits and brought in delicious Fall treats and drinks to get us in the spirit! Living in South Florida we don’t get to enjoy the traditional Fall weather and the beauty this season brings but having summer all year around isn’t the worst thing ever either! :)

Mixture of homemade and store bought treats to celebrate AUTUMN! 

To create are own Autumn Vibes we have been sewing with Maureen Cracknell’s new fabric collection called “Autumn Vibes” filled with autumnal tones that  captures the best of what this season has to offer. If you haven’t flipped through the “Autumn Vibes” Lookbook yet, I highly encourage you to take a look. It’s filled with super inspiring projects from quilts, home decor, apparel and so much more!

 Stunning LookBook cover above! Nothing better then quilts and nature! :)

Like always with every new collection release I create a quilt block tutorial for the AGF Quilt Block Collection! The “Lehigh Maze” block was such a perfect block to showcase my favorite print from the collection! The “Foxes in Fall” is so stinkin' cute!!!!!!! Which is why it is the star of the show by being framed in the center of my block.

Being a super fan girl of Maureen Cracknell’s work and after seeing all her hand drawn pencil drawings of many of the prints from this collection and watching them come to life with the most amazing colors, I truly am in awe of all the talent and hard work that goes into making a fabric collection. Which is why as quilters and sewists we find it hard to cut into our precious fabrics! :)

But don’t be afraid, if you're looking for a great project to start sewing with Autumn Vibes Fabric then the “Le high Maze Block may be the way to begin! Let’s get sewing, join me  by viewing the video below!

In the video I mention at the end I would love to make place settings for all my Fall get togethers using this block. How cute would that be for everyone to have a different colored fox in the center of their place mat? This block would also make a festive wall hanging.

 What would you make with this block? I always love hearing all your ideas and input. For all of you who viewed the video thanks so much! I love receiving  your comments and getting to know you all!

 

Happy Sewing,
