Fall is here and we have harvested the crop of some red beets with this month’s theme of on the farm for October 2022. You will find some fabulous farm themed blocks this month. Our complimentary block of the month for Quilt Block Mania, during the month of October 2022, Beets Block, is a great one for making a small quilt or a pillow cover. If you like receiving the complimentary blocks from Quilt Block Mania, please share this with your quilting friends on social media (please ask them to sign up for their own copy) so the designers can continue to do this every month. The designers thank you for your support, through your purchases of other patterns, which allow us to offer these complimentary block patterns each month.
During October 2022, we are offering 20% off two of our fall looking patterns. They are the Timberland Tumble pattern and the Chess Match pattern. The link to these patterns is here: downloadable-patterns/
Quilt Block Mania has 17 talented quilt designers creating blocks for this month’s theme- on the farm . There were no theme colors this month.
This is the Beets Block. This block features three shaded red beets with green tops set in some light brown soil.
The Beets block would makes a great pillow cover with a 1″ finished dark maroon border or a small quilt with a 1″ finished light green sashing and inner border and a 4″ finished dark maroon outer border.

Hi Lori, I’m so glad you like the block. Yes, I think golden beets would be wonderful. I could even see a mixture of different colored beets.
I never got the code for the Beet Block !! Can you help with this? Not sure why I have trouble getting any of your designs . Thank-you Rose
Hi Rose, I sent it to you last night. Did you not get it in your email?
Finger painting is positively GORGEOUS! Every time I open your email I think this is my favorite! Doing the farm quilt for a friend and then it’s MY TURN for a new quilt. Thank you so much.
Hi Joan, Thank you for the nice compliment. It makes my day when someone takes the time to let me know that they appreciate what I am doing.
