Moda Love Blog Tour, Bunny Hill Day!
Welcome to Bunny Hill Day on the Moda Love Blog Tour! We’re talking about things we love today and I’m posting along with Deb Strain and Kansas Troubles !
I know many of you haven’t seen it yet, so I’m sharing my latest love from Moda, Mistletoe Lane. It’s my newest fabric line that’s due to ship to stores in January!
I love that I design for Moda and get to create such fun fabrics! Mistletoe Lane includes a special “tag” panel that I designed for my Mistletoe Lane advent quilt. Stitch up the tags and they fit in the pockets on the quilt. There’s even a pocket on the panel, for the back of the quilt. The pocket will hold the tags when they’re not in use.
I love that I can design a goose named “Cinnamon” and make her the star of the Mistletoe Lane quilt! She’s one happy goose, and you can even make “Cinnamon” ornaments to match your quilt! She’s my newest petite pattern coming in November!
I love that I can take a Mini Charm pack of Mistletoe Lane and use the Moda Love pattern to make a mini version of the quilt!
Here’s the basic pattern that makes a Layer Cake, Charm Pack or Mini-Charm Pack quilt.
Since Mini quilts are so popular now, I’m into making minis!
I took the Moda Love Pattern, used a Mini Charm of Mistletoe Lane, cut a 3 1/2″ square for the center, and then added a 1″ finished border.
Here’s my block (notice that it has pink, my favorite color in it):
Then I just couldn’t help myself since I’m in LOVE with any kind of applique! I added some wool applique to the block:
You could also make a mini charm block quilt and put wool stars in the centers. Oh if I just had more time! If you’d like the bunny pattern I’ve included it below!
If I had to choose just one pre-cut as my favorite, I’d pick the fat quarter bundle. Leave me a comment telling me what your favorite pre-cut is, and you could win a Mistletoe Lane Jelly Roll. I’ll be giving one away on Saturday, September 13th!
It’s going to be a great weekend for some of you because every designer on this blog hop has a giveaway! It’s Moda Love from the Moda designers!
You’ll find a list with all the blog hop designers here. Be sure and leave a comment on all the blogs. You can’t win if you don’t comment and someone out there is going to be very happy!
Happy blog hopping!

My favorite precut is the Jelly Roll, it’s so pretty to look at and see the beautiful fabrics all at once, I do think a Layer Cake is more versatile. Mistletoe Lane is beautiful.

Your mini quilt is SO cute, especially with the bunny! Thanks for the bunny pattern and the chance to win.
I like fat quarters best too, but I usually purchase smaller cuts…

Right now my favorite is mini charms. I’m making a crumb quilt from my scraps and I am sooo SICK of all my scraps, lol. Have made 7, that is seven, queen sized quilts from my scraps in the last year. I’m on a mission to use them up. I need some new scraps for this Wild ‘n Goosey quilt, I’ve been looking at the ones I have through too many quilts. So I ordered several (ahem, quite a few) packs of the mini charms to add some variety to my life and to this quilt.
