Arkansas Snowflake - The Reveal!

It's time for the big REVEAL of my Arkansas Snowflake Block Re-Mix challenge! 

This was a super fun block to re-mix and the possibilities were so many that I had a hard time narrowing down the final version to share with you. 

 



So I ended up arranging the blocks into a 4 x 4 horizontal layout and used a new block version that was a combination of my Sneak Peek #1 and Sneak Peek #2.     I love the secondary patterns that emerged!  

The next step was adjusting the colors.  I stayed true to the fall colorway in the fat quarter bundle I selected for my inital fabric pull.  The color placement really enhanced the secondary patterns. 

In case you didn't see it, here are the fabrics I pulled for this month's block. 



Here's the link to purchase the bundle that I have shown. It is available in my Etsy shop.

I truly love the opportunity to play and experiment with different blocks as part of the REMIX challenge.  Stay tuned for next month's post when the designers work on another new block. 

Each Monday, the participating designers are sharing about the challenge on their Instagram feeds.  Some of us are adding other social media too.   If you don't already follow me on Instagram, I'm @masterpiecequilting
