Today is a big day in our country, and it is the kind of day that makes us who we are! With the freedom to be as individual as we like — just like our quilts! There are SOO many quilt blocks out there – and every day they just keep getting more and more beautiful. So, today we ask, if you were to be represented in a quilt block, which would it be? Let us know below.
BONUS!
As an added bonus, tomorrow we will have a random drawing, and the winner will get a $25 Shopping Spree at Homespun Hearth. And today, don’t forget to download a free copy of our Exclusive Election Day Quilt!
For me, the block would be a custom Butterfly Quilt Block – paper pieced — I don’t know why, but I’m always drawn to the beauty and serenity, the transformation, color and mystery of butterflies.
We look forward to hearing from you!

I think I’d be a Pinwheel, always going around in circles trying to get everything done in a day!
Maybe I’m an attic window, always looking for glimpses of the beauty in life to put in the windows in my mind.
Today’s challenge is easy. I always smile at everyone I see, always have, always will. Kindness is what makes us human.
I think I would be a butterfly block too. Always love them! Today’s challenge is easy. I always try to smile at everybody I see
I would be a friendship star or log cabin.
I would be a palm tree
I would be the Navy Star Block (http://www.quilterscache.com/N/NavyStarBlock.html) – to commemorate the members of my family who served in the US NAVY
I would be Broken Dishes block.. Cause my mind is always on many things and many projects..lol..
I would have to be a ladybug, probably paper pieced since I don’t like applique. 🙂 My mom’s pet name for me was ladybug, so it has a special meaning to me.
I like the comment about being a pinwheel and going around in circles. That describes me too! ndfromsd(at)gmail(dot)com
I don’t know what block I’d be, but I know others would label me a Drunkard’s Path….not because I am drunk (my limit is 2 margaritas a year, and never on the same day!), but simply because I’m always wandering, rarely in a straight line. I love to roam and travel, and will always be up for a road trip or hike. And if there’s a scenic way to get somewhere, that’s the path I take!!
I can’t be contained in just one block. LOL. However, a very large Log Cabin block could come close since I am by heart a homebody/nester. But, the fabrics that make up the block would have to include music ( I am a musician), rainbow colors, flowers, animals and other aspects of nature.
I have always loved the symbolism of the Friendship Star block. So that is the one I really identify with.
I would say the Lady of the Lake block!
I think I would be churn dash, easy to learn, flexible in many sizes, adapts well to using scraps. just happy.
I would be a dragon fly block.
Thanks for asking such a fun question 🙂
Crazy Ann! My middle name is Ann, and I’ve been told (just a few times…) that I am just a little bonkers, so Crazy Ann it is!
Boy that is really a hard one. i would have to be scrappy and probably anything that wasn’t paper pieced!!! Maybe a heart pattern??
A pinwheel block as I am always on the go. When I do stop, I would pick a paper pieced butterfly. It requires a lot of patience to get the finished block, but the results are a work of art.
Hmmmm – I think I would be a happy little bee buzzing around!
I’d like to be a New York Beauty block. I’m born/raised in California but I’ve always liked the block. akronne17@gmail.com
I would be a Missouri Star, a square that all the points are perfect (what an OCD quilter craves) and I am originally from St. Louis
I feel like a Card Trick. I’m always flipping the cards to see what the next great quilt surprise is going to be.
I love the idea of being Sister’s Choice…although I live across the country from my living sister and have been separated for 16 years from my youngest sister from cancer My sisters are my most special friends. Thanks for the chance to win
I’m a churn dash block ,always turning and doing lots of differnt things.
I’m a log cabin–a homebody, sometimes trad, sometimes modern.
The Dresden would best represent me. Everytime I see one it reminds me of a huge sunflower or the smallest of daisies.
Scrappy Mountain Majesties – just discovered this quilt and want to make one for my son.
I think I would be a brightly colored star. I love bright, clear colors and would be a star in the heavens.
i would be a rose block to remind me of my mother and all that she gave me and gave up for me.
