Kona Club Challenge - Modern Labyrinth Trivet by Leanne from She Can Quilt

We're so happy to have Leanne from she can quilt on the Kona Club Challenge this month. Leanne used the colors we sent out in February 2012 for Kona Club and made this lovely Modern Labyrinth Trivet. We hope you enjoy this tutorial and make one of your own!

We are giving away the fat quarters that Leanne used in this tutorial so be sure to leave a comment on this post to win!


Modern Labyrinth Trivet 


I'm Leanne and I have been blogging about quilting at she can quilt for about 2.5 years - do stop by my blog to visit if you have a minute. I live in Edmonton, Alberta and I also spend time at our little acreage on one of the Gulf Islands. I have been sewing, knitting, and embroidering all my life and I also weave and crochet. I began quilting about 3.5 years ago, and now, when I am not working or taking care of my family, I spend as much time as I can quilting.
