The Dragon Who Thought It Was a Unicorn — Land of Magic Quilt

A while ago my friend Kerry Goulder from Kidgiddy asked me to join in with the Land of Magic Quilt Sew-A-Long.   I love Kerry­’s designs and uni­corns are a bit of a favour­ite around here so I jumped in and said yes.   And then.… I made a dragon!    I know right!  Crazy!  I blame lack of sleep, too many thing going on and not enough chocol­ate (I’m not sure that last one’s not exactly true but chocol­ate is yummy).    Not that he isn’t the cutest dragon ever but ser­i­ously, not one little bit like a unicorn!

So, at 9pm last night I star­ted work on the uni­corn block from Kerry­’s Land of Magic Quilt.   Even more ador­able than the dragon and anoth­er one of the fab­ulous blocks in the design.   There’s also a mer­maid, crown, star, and castle which match the cute­ness factor perfectly.

If you’d like to make your own you can grab a copy of the pat­tern from Kerry­’s shop by click­ing here.   I bet there is some little per­son you know who would love a Land of Magic Quilt, or you can pur­chase the indi­vidu­al block pat­terns and just make a couple of the blocks if you prefer.

Kerry has a great series of blog posts avail­able on her site with include heaps of hints and tips on paper piecing these blocks.  Head over to her web­site to check them out.

And without fur­ther adieu, here’s the uni­corn!   Pos­ing very nicely sur­roun­ded by uni­corn fab­ric from Sarah Jane’s Magic fab­ric col­lec­tion, pink sol­id and the aqua stars from Vanessa Goertzen’s new Sug­ar Pie col­lec­tion (avail­able in stores 2017).   She’s great friends with the dragon lol!

My dragon/unicorn debacle has put me a bit behind so these sweet blocks haven’t quite been fin­ished off.   They’re destined to become pil­lows for two sweet little girls for Christ­mas which means I’ll need to be mak­ing a third for their baby brother.

Have a great week!
