Today I am one of 10 lucky bloggers on the Volume 9 blog tour for Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks.
This is the third time I have had a block published in this magazine and this block is the one I am most excited about. Why? Because I love riding my bike. I named it "Go Wheels?"
It's on page 45.
The flag is 3-D and the streamers are made from DMC floss.
What fun!
I like to use a shiny thread when I blanket stitch applique, either rayon or polyester.
It gives it a little pop. Wouldn't a dog look cute in that basket? (I have just the one.)
I loved this block so much when I made it, that I had to make a quilt using it.
I hand stitched all of the bicycle sayings with some help from a friend, using 3 strands of DMC floss
and a back stitch on a coarsely woven utility cloth.

Wow - the last time I rode a bike was when I lived in Portsmouth... that is nearly 8 or 9 years ago! [unless you count an exercise bike a bike? Then that was three months ago!!!] Great bock!
ReplyDeleteI am a follower :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute block, need to buy the magazine. It's been ower half year when I was last time on my bike. Need to repair the tyre and roll on :)
ReplyDeleteIt's been many many years since I rode a bike!
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode a bike was 20 years ago! Love your block!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
I biked twice just last week!
ReplyDeleteLove your block - I really need to learn machine applique. The last time I rode a bike was at least 30 years ago. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteCute block!
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode my bike was last year before the snow came.
I rode it yesterday. I live in the country so it's perfect for bike riding. Is this block hard to make?
ReplyDeleteI follow you on BL.
ReplyDeleteI rode my bike to the mailbox last week! Love your block.

I haven't ridden my bike since before the endless winter started! We took a trip to the Smoky Mountains last fall and rode the Cade's Cove loop in the park -- it's a great scenic ride.
ReplyDeletelove this block - I haven't ridden a bike in years - but my son and his girlfriend ride all the time!
ReplyDeleteLove the detail! Congratulations for being published!!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long time since I rode my bike but I have such fond memories of wonderful bike rides down country roads. Congratulations on your wonderful block being selected. Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteLast time on my bike... was LAST spring. Agh... too long. This is a delightful block ( :
ReplyDeleteCute as can be, and Miss B would look so at home in the basket! I love the 3-D details! I usually use DMC for things like rope (think clotheslines) or cow's tails, horses' manes, really adds to the cuteness! Congrats on being included in the book!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, last time I rode a bike was prior to my back issues, so, long ago! And I'm a happy follower!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden my bike since the fall--I'm looking forward to getting back on it once the weather cooperates and they clear all the sand from the roads! Love your block--will probably be one of the first I make from this issue!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute block! The last time I rode my bike... well, since spring has just arrived, we haven't taken the bikes out of the garage yet. So, last time I rode was last fall. Time to get going again! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably been 17 years. I'm almost 60, pretty much only do stationary bikes now
ReplyDeleteYour bicycle is so intricate, Cheryl! Love it. I don't think I've ridden a bike since I was a teenager. Uh oh.
ReplyDeleteI've got you in my Feedly reader and in Bloglovin.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden a bike in years! I grew up in VA Beach where bike riding is easy since it is flat, flat, flat there. Now I live in a place with hills, so bike riding is a lot harder, and I'm a lot older. I ride a stationary bike at the gym, though. Does that count?
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute block! The last time I rode my bike was about 5 years ago (yikes)...
ReplyDeleteSo V E R Y cute! I cannot even remember the last time I rode a bike.

ReplyDeletelast fall love your block so cute
ReplyDeleteI love my bike and ride all the time, as soon as I saw your block I thought "I have to make a wall hanging for my bike". :)
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog on Bloglovin'!
ReplyDeletecongrats, this is such a wonderful block. Oh my goodness, I have knee problems, so I think the last time I was able to ride my bike was approx. 10-15 yrs ago. Wow time sure flies. Thanks for a chance.
ReplyDeleteHaven't got to ride my bike anywhere for many years, but I do have an exercise bike! Does that count? I get on it every day!
ReplyDeleteLast time I rode my bike was about 2 years ago. I was trying to get back into it for therapy and exercise reasons. I really love your block. It makes me smile. And the color choices are so great. This is a block I would make several times. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteLove this block I am going to start following today
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode a bike was about 25 years ago. I would like to ride an exercise bike, but I do not have one!
ReplyDeleteHow I'd love to have a bike! Living on a dirt road with sharp rocks and cactus and mesquite thorns makes having one not very practical but walking works. Your block and the little quilt are terrific. Also, I love Bailey.
ReplyDeleteI love your block!!! I haven't ridden by bike in years however, I do ride the stationery bike at the gym. Thanks for a chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI thought I posted but don't see it, so if I did this twice, I'm sorry. I love your block!! I haven't ridden my bicycle in years however, I do ride the bike at the gym.
ReplyDeleteI love the bike. I want one with a basket for my front porch and I wouldn't mind having one to ride either. Life is a ride, jump on and hang on!

ReplyDelete30 years sound about right
ReplyDeleteLast time I rode a bike was when I was teaching my son to ride his. I am not able to ride very far the knees are not
ReplyDeletewhat they used to be.
OMG! I can't even remember the last time I rode a bike! But I just love your bike block and quilt. It's so cute. Thanks for the chance.

Love bikes of any kind, especially old ones sitting in the garden with flowers in the basket.
ReplyDeleteGosh, I haven't been on my bike for months! I think the ice is off the roads so I better get the tires checked and get rolling! Your block is adorable.
ReplyDeleteI have a pink bike (with basket, of course) but I haven't taken it out yet this spring. As soon I get the last set of papers graded, I am heading out for a ride. Up to my nose with grading and writing exams. Soon, soon the semester will be over and then my time is my own.
ReplyDeleteGreat block!
Your bike block is adorable and I ventured out on my bike a few months ago. Follow you on bloglovin'

Don't ride a regular bike any more. Does an exercise bicycle count?:)

ReplyDeleteLove your block for a kids quilt.......would have to be red though for my grandson!

ReplyDeleteJust got a new bike and am having a friend help me set it up to fit. Really excited as I haven't been biking for a looooong time. antiques@eoni.com
ReplyDeleteLast summer is the last time I went for a ride. Looking forward to getting it out of the garage soon. Super cute block!

ReplyDeleteLove your bike!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great block! I love your bike quilt with the hand stitched sayings. I haven't ridden a bike in a very long time. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeletebhometchko(at)hotmail(dot)com
I haven't ridden in about 2 years - been jogging along side my son as he learns to ride. This is very cute ! My boss is a cyclist and would love to put this on his retirement quilt... maybe sans tassles?
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden my bike since last fall. We are looking for a nice day today, so maybe today will be the day to bring my bike out of the garage for a ride.
ReplyDeleteLast time I rode my bike was last fall. Waiting for some warmer weather.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on having your block chosen for the issue.
A very long time since I rode a bike, it is resting comfortably in my garage. Your quilt is lovely!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden a bike in decades and don't have a bike in working order anyway.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode my bike was before Christmas of last year. I came down sick and haven't ridden since. This is one adorable block!
ReplyDeleteMy gosh, only Yesterday! My daughter got a new bike and I had to go along for a ride through the neighborhood. This would be a cute block to make her in celebration of her new bike - the detail you put into it is marvelous!
ReplyDeleteI rode it around the block a few years ago!
ReplyDeleteIt's been so long I can't even remember when the last time I rode a bike was!
ReplyDeleteI know how much you love to ride with Bailey in your basket. Sadly, it has been many years since I rode a bike due to balance problems. But, this block brings back many girlhood memories. Diane drexlerdl@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI know how much you enjoy riding with Bailey in your basket. Sadly, due to balance problems, I have not ridden in many years. But, your block brings back childhood memories.
ReplyDeleteDiane drexlerdl@aol.com
OMG, is this just the cutest. It takes me back to when I was a wee one learning to ride myself. What a great memory quilt this would make! Thanks!!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is a very fun block - especially all the extras you added (hmmm I wonder how I could add playing cards to the wheel spokes?). I haven't ridden in years unless you count an exercise bike (which I also haven't ridden in years). But, my twin is an avid rider, as is her husband. That would make a nice gift for their wall. Thanks for the opportunity! notwendy gmail

ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden a bike in years. What an adorable block. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI guess I was about 64 the last time I tried to get on a bike. Mick had raised the seat and I've doubled my weight and immediately fell on my bottom right in the driveway. I looked around and didn't see anyone so I just crossed my legs and pretended I was just sitting there until Mick could figure out how to get me up......giggle.
ReplyDeleteI haven't rode my bike for at least 2 summers. Between the bugs and heat in the summer and the weather the rest of the year, it isn't always a pleasure to ride.
ReplyDeleteGreat block!! It has been probably 2 years since I rode my bike. I really like your quilt, too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your block. I ride every day to my job - not very far - 15 minutes.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your Go Wheels Block! I can't remember the last time I rode a bike..it has been a very very long time.
ReplyDeleteWell I haven't ridden in many years! We have bikes for our grandchildren for when they visit that they love to do while I walk.
ReplyDeleteIt has been 2 years ago when visiting a friend. I love, love, love the bike pattern. It is the most fun pattern I have seen in a long time. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden my bike or anyone else's for 40 years. :) Love your block.
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute block. Last time I rode my bike - probably about 40 years ago!

ReplyDeleteFollowing on Bloglovin!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this block!!!!! I rode my bike last summer, and it's nearly time to bring it out again. I also bought a wicker basket for it last summer. Can't wait to make your block, but it'll have to wait until winter because I'm going to be too busy peddling about. Maybe this year I'll get a bell!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on being chosen for the magazine. Your block is adorable. The last time I rode my bike was about 3 years ago. cknapp3626@sbcglobal.net
ReplyDeleteI probably rode about 10 years ago. I love your block. There is something about quilted or embroidered bikes that always makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteIt has been a few years since I was on my bike - guess I should dust if off and ride the trail near my house.
ReplyDeleteVery cute!
ReplyDeleteI rode a bike this morning--very cute...forgot that part in my last comment! So delete that one! :)
ReplyDeleteMy husband rides his bike, and I walk with the kids. No idea last time I actually rode a bike........
ReplyDeleteI'm a bloglovin' follower!
ReplyDeleteLast time I rode my bike was about ten years ago when I was trying to lose weight after all the medical issues with breast cancer. Was good exercise but took lots of energy. Got rid of my bike after that so now I just walk...but I do love your block...and those streamers are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden in about a year and a half. We never got the bikes out last year. As soon as it warms up a little more (cloudy, rainy and 45 degrees today) we'll be getting out the bikes again.
ReplyDeleteYears ago. I guess I need to clean it, oil it and jump on and riiiiiiiide............
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode a bike was when I was in my early thirties which was a long, long time ago! Love your block
ReplyDeletewlinda_ca@yahoo.com
Your bike is great! The last time I rode a bike was 13 years ago during a very hot summer and I felt quite dizzy, so I stopped and then just fainted into the grass!
ReplyDeleteI last rode my bike about 5 years ago, but hope to try again now I live where there aren't,t so many hills.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and clever blocks you have designed for Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, Volume 9. It has been so long since I have rode a bike that I don't even know if I could even ride a bike. I love the idea of a quilt using this block. This is just a darling block and would surely make a cute baby quilt. Thank you for this design and giving all of us a chance to win.

Gosh the last time I rode my bike was about 5 years ago. Congrats on having your block in the magazine and thank you for a wonderful giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden a bike in years. Probably because I moved to a not so friendly bike riding state. Where we came from biking and bike lanes abound.
ReplyDeleteI love the bike block,, what fun to see on a quilt. The last time I was able to ride my bike was in sept of 2013, but bike ride season is starting here again so it will not be long and I will be riding again, happy sewing to all,
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden my bike since last summer.. Time to get it out...weeeee..... Love your quilt.. The stitched saying are so sweet.. Deff have to make one! Thank you for the post
ReplyDeleteYour block is so detailed! Love it. The last time I rode my bike was last year in France. My family took a bike ride in the French countryside. We learned that drivers drive a LOT faster on the side roads than Americans do! Scary...
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode my bike was during the 80s when my kids were young. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com
ReplyDeleteIt has been a little over a year since I rode a bike. It was my daughter's bike and it was too small for me. I almost rode out in front of a car and then I decided that was enough for me.
ReplyDeleteReally sweet block.
ReplyDeleteI already follow you on Bloglovin. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this cute and original block! It's been a couple of years since I've ridden my bike. Gearing up on my stationary bike so I can ride this Summer.
ReplyDeleteLast year sometime. I really should ride more often!
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode on a bike is a week ago.It's fun and healty.
ReplyDeleteI think I haven't ridden my bike in over 5 years. Loaned it to my father-in-law (he's a full time RVer) and it was promply stolen at one of the RV parks he frequents and it hasn't been replaced. :-( Oh well, that just means more time for sewing, right? Congratulations on getting into the publication. Thank you for sponsoring the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteA week ago a I rode on my bike. It's fun and healthy
ReplyDeleteLast time I was on my bike was last May. Need to get it out and ride again. Thanks,
ReplyDeleteI had to chuckle -- I am 71 yrs old and can't even remember when I last rode a bike, but it has been a very long time.
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower
ReplyDeleteLove your block.The last time I rode on a bike was last week .It's fun !!
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode a bike was probably in the late 50's or early '60's--I could never get the hang of hand brakes and not braking by reversing the pedals. I understand, though, that coaster brake bikes are available in stores again, so I may have to look into that. LOTS of bike trails in the Midwest.
ReplyDeleteI rode a bike when I was younger...not anymore, but I can do a stationary one....thank you .....marta....martamanole@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteoh that is just darling!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ridden my bike since my kids were little, and my baby is going to be 24 in July. (How can that be??) I really like your 3D effects and your shiny thread!
ReplyDeleteI last rode my bike on Sat, it's been raining every day since. I love riding my bike on the local trails and go all the time. Last year I did about 550 miles. I'm hoping to beat that this year.
ReplyDeleteI rode my bike a lot when I was a kid. Had one as an adult that I enjoyed riding with my kids. Now the only kind I ride is a stationary bike. Your block is adorable.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great summery block! OMGosh - I don't even remember the last time I rode a bike - I hear once you can ride you never forget but I always get a little nervous to try again! Thanks so much for the chance to win. :) Debby E

Last time I rode a bike was over 30 years ago when I was in grad school, riding on the shoulder to get my mail, when a van moved into the shoulder and hit me. I survived with only a few stitches in my head and a broken wrist, but I haven't ridden since. My best guy friend loves to ride, though, and rides 70-100 miles a week, just for fun.

I rode a bike up until I had children. My oldest will be 30 next month. I liked the quilt better than the block. You did a nice job.
ReplyDeleteI honestly can't remember the last time that I rode a bicycle outside. Does my stationary bike count? That I rode during the winter, when I couldn't get out to walk. Which was a lot this year.
ReplyDeleteI have a stationery bike that I rode today!! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteAs I drove home from work this evening, I saw someone riding their bike and thought about how I would be getting mine out on the road this weekend!! Here on the east coast of Canada, we are still experiencing snow and very cold temperatures, so getting your bike on the road is a wonderful, wonderful thing! I love your block!
ReplyDeleteThis would be great for my cycling brother. He even gave up his car! Metro trains, buses and his bike or he doesn't go.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I rode my bike was a couple of years ago. my three year old grand daughter is just learning so I better get my bike our so I can ride with her.
ReplyDeleteGreat block. The last time I rode my bike has to be at least 20 years ago. Don't have one now. Thanks for the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden a bike in ages, but that's a really cool block.
ReplyDeleteI hate to say it but its been about 5 years!! I love your bike block and hopefully this summer I will get my bike out for a spin!
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower on bloglovn also! thanks!
ReplyDeleteYour block is so cute and I love the quilt you made with them. I think the last time I rode a bike was about five years ago and I didn't last very long on it..lol

5 days a week I ride my stationary bike. Like your pattern. schroeppelr at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden a bike since college - and I won't tell you how long ago that was! I own a bike, a relatively new one, but I haven't ridden it yet. I live in the suburbs, and there aren't any good trails around to ride on. And I won't ride in the streets - too many cyclists get run over by cars!
ReplyDeletesuch a cute block. I haven't ridden a bike for about 5 years.
ReplyDeleteI just added your blog to my Bloglovin feed!
ReplyDeleteI haven't had a bike since my parents moved to Washington state--I was living on campus and my bike was at my parent's house...it got loaded into the moving truck and off it went. That was 16 years ago. You'd think I would have had my bike with me as a student, right? I don't know. My hubby wants to get me a really nice bike one of these days--but we gotta teach the kiddies to ride theirs.
ReplyDeleteCute block!

ReplyDeleteoh my goodness...it's been 10 years...in fact, I haven't seen it in the garage lately. Perhaps one of my teenagers took it! LOL. I'll have to consider getting another one!
ReplyDeleteLast fall is the last time I rode my bike. I was riding it to work until it got to cold. I will be getting it out this weekend to start riding again, now that it is warmer. Thank you for a chance to win.

ReplyDeleteLove your block! Last time I rode my bike was last summer. Am waiting for the weather to get a bit nicer so I can get it out again.
ReplyDeleteI have a beautiful brand new bike and this spring I plan on putting some miles on it, which will be great because after a long and cold winter, I feel slightly out of shape!
ReplyDeleteI think about 10 years ago. I keep moving to places that have large hills, which makes riding difficult. ebbtide45 at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute block... it's been about 20 years since I've been on a bicycle.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't ridden since last fall, but when we do, we ride our off-road bikes in the state parks of Texas, and around our beautiful little town of New Braunfels, TX. And we ALWAYS wear our helmets! This block just jumped to the top of my favorites list!
ReplyDeleteI don't own a bike, so I haven't been in a ride from a long time now :(
ReplyDeleteStationary bike 2 months ago. Two wheeler :-) about 23 years ago.
ReplyDeleteI love your block though :-)
Fun block! I haven't ridden a bike in several years - I just lace up the shoes and run!
ReplyDeleteJust spent winter in FL, bought a neighbors bike for $25.00 used to ride often when I was
ReplyDeleteYounger. Nice to be back on a bike riding but tough against the beach wind.
I haven't ridden a bicycle in years! I had a terrible accident as a child so it took me many years to get back on. And even then, I hesitated. Okay, probably much more info than you wanted but there you have it! I love your block, love applique! Thanks for a chance at the give-away.

ReplyDeleteWell, I rode my bike last summer (unfortunately some knee issues). Really love riding in a couple of our local parks, they have all of the hills, scenery, so peaceful! Your block is so wonderful, and I love the embroidery in the alternating blocks. Thanks for sharing what you love!
ReplyDeleteI love your bright cheery bicycle block. I use to ride with some of my girlfriends in the outdoors around our 6.2 mile park. But then allergies kicked in so I ride a stationary bike at the fitness club and dream about the outdoors.

ReplyDeleteGood grief, it has been decades. That shocks me--I used to ride my bike everywhere. Then I got my drivers license, and ventured farther and farther from home. Now we live in the country and all the roads are gravel, and not great for bikes. But your block brings back sweet memories. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my word, I can not remember the last time I was on a bike, but I've been recently helping my 5 year old learn to ride hers. Does that count? So far, this is my favorite block!
