| If you want to try a Kaleidoscope Block but want to avoid purchasing a large amount of fabric to get the eight repeats, or don't want to do the fabric preparation and cutting, this is the kit for you. The Kaleidoscope Quilt Block Kits are not for Sale. The Kits are a gift to someone who is purchasing a Quilt Top from me. Since the Kit is just a way to introduce stacking to someone, let's keep it at one kit, which is five blocks, to a customer, even if you're purchasing more than one Quilt Top. If you are already purchasing a Quilt or Quilt Top and you would like to try some Kaleidoscope Quilt Blocks, let me know in your EMail. I will send you precut fabric for five Kaleidoscope Blocks and instructions on how to put them together. There is no charge for the Kaleidoscope Block Kit, nor is there an additional shipping charge. You will trim the Kaleidoscope blocks to six and a half or six and a quarter inches when finished (depending on your sewing) and five blocks will make a nice table topper or small wall hanging after you add some setting blocks and borders. Since you'll be trimming the blocks, success is pretty much assured! Additionally, the small size block is easier to sew together because you're working with less bias. You supply the fabric for the block corners and whatever setting you decide on. The fabric selection will be mine and will probably be from fabric that I've used in a Quilt Top. I can't imagine that I'd ever be able to do the stacking and cutting for Kaleidoscope Quilt Blocks and not want to make a Quilt Top from at least some of them :) You can get an idea of what the Kaleidoscope Blocks will look like by looking at the Quilt Tops below, which are a few that I've made with this block. All of these were made using this same block pattern as a starting point. I feel that this is the easiest of all the Kaleidoscope blocks and, as you can see from the pictures below, it's one of my favorites!! The other advantage to this block is that you don't need to decide on your corner triangles until you have the Kaleidoscope Blocks sewn together and can see what would look best for setting them. Remember, your fabric kits will be a surprise and won't necessarily be from any of these Quilts or Quilt Tops! Feel free to use my setting ideas :) Why would I offer Free Kaleidoscope Quilt Block Kits?? Three reasons: As an extra incentive to order one of my Quilts or Quilt Tops I don't always want to make a second or third Quilt Top from the same fabric. I truly love to share my happy addiction!! |
| Don't choose your Quilt Top for the Free Quilt Top Drawing from this page because some of these are already sold or given away. They're just here as examples of ways to set the Kaleidoscope Block. |
