Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month creative journey with Becky Goldsmith as we bring you "Sizzle," a stunning quilt designed especially for TQS.

Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns. Becky has also created a selection of "how-to" videos to guide you along the way.

Let's use this Topic "Sizzle Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful Sizzle Blocks. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.
The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.
AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

Here are my month 1 and month 2. I have this stained glass window in my kitchen and have been wanting a wall hanging in my family room to compliment it. Have made the blocks 75% of size in order to accommodate the size of wall I have to put the finished piece on. I want to wait to determine placement before sewing the corners on. Very much enjoying the challenge of this BOM!

Helen, It's fun to see how your black background & bright fabrics give these blocks an entirely different look. I can tell you're having fun...keep going & thanks for sharing!

Holly,
Yes, I am working up these wall hanging blocks to decide on the layout for colors on the actual quilt. There are 8 rainbow colors so I just plan to order the
same amount of each color, and luckily I can order more if that plan does not work out because Batiks Plus always carries all the Hoffman 1895 Watercolor
Bali Batik line. Some of the extra black designs I am throwing in, may not work with the paper piecing. It is fun just playing around with all the possibilities.
Right now I plan to do the 9 blocks for the wall hanging and the appliqué border.

Andrea,
These are scraps from my stash, but I plan to use the Hoffman 1895 Watercolor Bali Batiks. They are tone on tone colors with
no actual designs. Batiks Plus carries 380 different colors in that line. I have a chart I bought years ago that has the fabric swatches
so I can match these colors to the chart and order what I need. The black is Robert Kaufman kona jet black cotton.. I am having so
much fun just playing around with the possibilities.

Helen, these are beautiful! Did you use a fabric line for them, and if so, which one(s)?

Wow, HelenW! These are so fun. This is your color plan for the actual stitched blocks, right? Are you planning to do more with them?
