One of the blocks was the Delectable Mountains block. I blogged about it HERE and included links to the block pattern.

It's an interesting block. With half of the block being blank space, I decided that I'd create a wall quilt with 4 of these blocks and a border.

I positioned them so that the blank halves were all joined in the centre and then appliqued some words. The Michael Miller fabrics which I used for the "mountains" are gold and silver shine on black, so I really wanted my words to reference shine or sparkle or glitter... I found this this little line on Pinterest, and loved it and they way it would fit on to the empty space. 

To create the words, I chose a font which I liked on a word-art document - Google documents are my favourite way to do this. The program is simple to use and includes a large selection of fonts. 

Then with my chosed font, I enlarged it. Outlined it. Flipped it. Printed it. Traced it on to bonding paper (eg Vliesofix or Heat n Bond etc). Fused it to the bright pink fabric. Cut out the letters and removed backing paper. Arranged the words to the centre of the space. Fused in place. Appliqued with matching pink Aurifil thread. Does that all make sense?
