City Bear

City Bear

Welcome Little Bear Fans!

Little Bear is all dressed up in this month's QBM theme. 

Each month the Quilt Block Mania participating designers share a block pattern inspired by the month's theme. The pattern is free for the month. I'll be designing and giving away a block each month reflecting the Quilt Block Mania monthly theme, however, my block designs will also follow my Year of Bears theme. Collect all the blocks and make a quilt at the end of the year. If you missed any of the previous blocks, you can read about them on the blog HERE and visit my online shop to purchase.

➡️Year of Bears Quilt Block Pattern Series

The QBM theme for August is "Accessories ".

Little Bear is dressed up for a day of business in the city and he's got all his favorite accessories... his hat, tie, watch and briefcase. 

City Bear is the free 12" block pattern I'm giving this month. Details on how to get your free block pattern is at the bottom of this post. You will also find the links to all the other QBM participating designers. This block pattern will only be free to download for the month of August. After that time, you'll be able to purchase the pattern in my online shop.                                                                                                  
**NOTE** This promotion has ended but the Hiking Bear PDF block pattern is available for purchase in my online shop.

Little Bear is looking good!
It's all about the details. I added a little extra stitching to the brief case and the watch face was done with permanent fabric markers. 

Bonus Block

Little Bear is enjoying a summer picnic and eating his favorite summertime treat... watermelon. Picnic Bear is the bonus block this month. It's one of my favorites! 

Watermelon! Yum! The seeds are done with either permanent ink or satin stitch embroidery. Check out the details in this cute picnic basket and dandelion flowers.

  Picnic Bear is available now in my online shop. ➡️BUY HERE

 

**Note: The Hiking Bear pattern was given free for the month of June 2024 as part of the Quilt Block Mania blog hop.
