Welcome to the first day of the
Time in a Bottle Blog Hop!
I'm happy to kick things off with
"Goin' Through Time"
with an hourglass block.
Thank you, Carol, for inviting me to join this super fun blog hop!
when I made this mug rug for the
and I cut strips of varying widths to fit with the hourglass blocks.
It was so fun to design and put together this
Rainbow Hourglass quilt
that I call
Goin' Through Time
I have a free tutorial to make hourglass blocks that I made several years ago.
Click HERE for that.
Goin' Through Time
is about 40" x 50" and is quilted with a simple meander.
The backing is a grey Minky fabric for coziness.
Want some more

Your “ Looking through an Hour Glass quilt… is stunning.
A fun and colourful quilt, I love the rainbow effect through the hourglasses!
What a fun quilt!
Happy and beautiful. Two words from me that describe my feelings about your quilt. This one sings, some quilts do that. This one is singing a happy tune. Thanks fo creating it.
Yowsa!! Hourglass blocks, meh. But you have once again proved that an artist can make anything spectacular!! Thanks for showing how very wrong I was, and making me want to run out and get a spectacular fat quarter bundle and go to town!!
Beautiful rainbow Carla. I love a good rainbow and yours has such saturated color too.
Your quilt is gorgeous and I really love the name and concept of it. So perfect for the hop theme!
This is such a very fun rainbow hour glass quilt! And a bonus stash buster. I love the mug rug and it was a great inspiration to go big with the design.
Awesome quilt! The rainbow colors are wonderful with the hour glasses interspersed. It reminds me of the Gypsy's Wife or Wander's Wife quilt with the vertical aspect of it, but this is so much simpler and just as lovely.
What a fun way to stash bust and I love the bright colors too. Blog hops are so full of inspiration. Now I'm thinking about my stash and fun ways to use it up.
Carla, What a great quilt. I love your design. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful colorful quilt! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
What fun rainbow of color with the hourglass blocks interspersed. I love it!
Beautiful quilt, Carla! The minky on the back will make it so soft and cuddly! I still love your mug rug too!
Oh, you are so right about having new quilt ideas swimming through my mind! This is just my second blog stop on the week's hop and, I have two "want to quilt, NEED to quilt!" ideas. Yours will be great for the Comfort Quilts group to which I belong. Thanks for sharing.

I am speechless on this one...wow! You totally nailed the challenge with this gorgeous quilt. Love it!
Well Carla who doesn't love a rainbow? Such a happy quilt. Love the colors and the hourglasses sprinkled in. You could have used this quilt for the next blog hop too, since it so colorful.
Such a pretty quilt. Love all the colors and minky on the back makes is so snuggly.
Your quilt is BEAUTIFUL! I love the use of the hourglass blocks and stripes. It is so colorful and wonderful. Thanks for sharing!
Love this idea great idea to brake up a string quilt...
Wow! That's beautiful! You did an awesome job.
I love that quilt. So great that you used pretty stash to make it. Goin' Through Time brightened my dark, rainy day.
That's such a pretty quilt - loved how you incorporated the 'Time in a Bottle'. The pinwheel blocks add so much and I love minky for a backing. Perfect.
Absolutely perfect incorporating those time in a bottle blocks in your rainbow themed quilt. It's very much "happy eye candy", thanks for sharing and creating.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!
that's just gorgeous! I missed the cute mug rug too!
Oh Wow! I love your looking through an hourglass quilt! It is gorgeous and using up stash is a win!

Such a fun vibrant quilt....I can see the sand slipping through those hourglass blocks.
Carla, such a fun and vibrant quilt. Rainbow quilts are the best and I love how you've used the hourglass in your project.
Fabulous time rainbow.
This turned out fantastic. So bright and fun!
Love this! I do remember the little mug rug, also. They just go together, for sure.
So bright and gorgeous very clever placement well done

I really love your quilt. It is so bright and colorful and just yells spring! Such a creative use of color! The mini one is just as cute. Thanks for posting on my blog. And keep making such gorgeous quilts.

Beautiful colors, so cheerful and ready for sunshine.
Totally awesome! I love the rainbow stripes, and this is so inspiring! Great way to use up leftover strips!
Love this quilt and the concept of going through time. You found some great color choices in your stash, very impressive.
