This quilt was started as a practice piece for a quilt I want to make using this “one block wonder” technique. Finally it is finished and bound!
Floral Fantasy, a “one block wonder” quilt
Here is the fabric from which these one block wonders were cut. As you can see, it was pretty lively to begin with.
Flower Fiesta by Jane Sassaman
The border for the above quilt is from a different Jane Sassaman fabric.
Here’s the quilt for which this was practice. It is back in a box waiting its turn.
Next week I’ll show some more of what pushed its way in front of that quilt.
Meanwhile, if you want to try a one block wonder, here’s a link to the book. And the fabric or both quilts is designed by Jane Sassaman, whose website is here.

That one block wonder pattern produces some amazing quilts. The wilder the fabric, the better the result, I think. These two are great examples.
Thanks. That guy whose work you pointed out (can’t think of his name at the moment) obviously is making many more blocks per quilt. I can’t imagine how long it takes!
I have never heard or seen one block wonders. This is so cool!
You gotta try it! Your library probably has one of the books 😃
It’s on my important list of things to try. I will probably have to wait until after Thanksgiving since I have projects to complete.
Beautiful! They look so complicated but I have a one block wonder book and I have friends who I have watched work on one during a quilt retreat and they are only moderately scary! Thanks for sharing the fabric you started with – that is one of the fun things about these quilts is transforming a fabric into something unexpected!
Thanks. And I do agree they’re moderately scary.
That’s beautiful. I especially like how you used the different fabric to border it. That gives it a much more interesting look, in my opinion.
Thank you. Of course, the border fabric was from the same collection, which helps.
Looks like a wonderful garden on your quilt.
Thank you. On to the next one!
Can’t wait to see it
As always, so wonderful to see your work! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for visiting 😊
