Today we're sharing a project starter--some block-making inspiration. The instructions are for using 4" squares, but you can easily adapt to smaller or larger squares. Have fun!

The Touch of Luxe collection from Kanvas would make rich, gold and black blocks.

ReplyDeleteIt must be ANTOINETTE. A very beautiful line! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteAntoinette has a quilt designed by Wendy Sheppard that's named after King Louis XIV's mom. I guess it's Antoinette (although research says his wife's name was Marie-Therese). Thanks again for a great blog, great info, and wonderful contest.

I'm guessing it is Antoinette since there is a quilt named after his mother, Anne, using that collection.
ReplyDeleteI didn't find any definite reference to King Louis's wives. Maria Theresa of Spain was his first wife and Françoise d'Aubigné, Marquise de Maintenon was the second wife of King Louis XIV of France.
My guess is also Antionette. I could not find any reference to any wives in the description. (He did not have a wife called Antoinette)
ReplyDeleteI do love the collection.On my list of wany to own.
Antoinette for Marie Antoinette. jotenijo@yahoo.ca
