I am excited to share the progress for Month 2 of the 2024 Designer Mystery Quilt Along with Fat Quarter Shop! This year, we are working with the charming My Summer House fabrics by Bunny Hill Designs. This month’s block, Happiness Blooms, designed by Stacy Iest Hsu, is a delightful flower block that combines basic quilting techniques to create a stunning design.

The Happiness Blooms Quilt Block
The Happiness Blooms block features a charming flower design made using half square triangles and sew and flip corners. While it may look complicated, the techniques used are quite straightforward, making it an enjoyable project for quilters of all skill levels. The vibrant colors of the My Summer House fabrics by Bunny Hill Designs add a cheerful touch to this block, making it a true standout.
Designer Mystery 2024 Month 2
After completing the flower block, I added the finishing kit pieces to create the house block for the final quilt. The house motif design ties everything together beautifully, giving the quilt a cohesive and charming look. The roof colors alternate from month to month between the reds and light blues of the collection.
Wrapping Up Month 2 of 2024 Designer Mystery
With the first two blocks completed, I began sewing them together along with the accent flower block from the finishing kit. This approach of piecing the quilt top month by month is helping me stay organized and see the quilt come together gradually. Itās exciting to watch the progress unfold!
