Four Cracker Blocks

I miss Moda Frivol quilt kits. They were a dozen tins, each containing 42 7” cotton squares and a pattern to turn those squares into a small quilt. I collected and pieced all twelve in 2015-2016. I gave Kindred and Vintage to my mother as quilt tops, and she finished them both. Heart went to my hairdresser. She’s also a quilter and appreciates the work that went into it. Bread ‘n Butter hangs in Heather’s bedroom, and Heritage is always on the dining room table. The rest take turns adorning the wall above the piano. I’ve often wished Moda Fabrics would revisit the idea, or that I could find another Frivol kit on eBay or some far-flung online quilt shop to buy and make again. Alas, they sold out years ago. Still, I’ve kept my twelve tins and their original patterns. Maybe I should use the patterns to remake these twelve quilts with prints from my own stash.
