Introducing Modblock Volume 3 Issue 1

Dear Wholesale Friends,

We are so excited to announce the third volume of our modern magazine, ModBlock! Here at Missouri Star, our philosophy has always been that quilting should be fun and creative. That’s why we love the modern movement so much. In modern quilting there are no rules, just great ideas to help you get started. You can follow the pattern or break free and choose your own design path. You are limited only by your own imagination!

Lately we’ve been intrigued with the importance of harmony in our quilt designs. Quilts are like art; when all the elements work together, they produce a composition that is pleasing to the eye. In this issue, we’ll show you the elements that help a quilt come together beautifully every single time. We’re going to give you the tools to look at your work with a critical eye and have more success. There may be no right or wrong way to make a quilt, but we want to help you create with even greater confidence.

Here are a few specifics about ModBlock:

Content: Technique and instructional content rather than storytelling.
Fabric: Modern prints and solids.
Designers: Meet new, modern designers (along with Jenny Doan, of course)!
Patterns: Modern designers put their own spin on existing MSQC tutorials and techniques.

Pre-order for your shop today!

See Below to take a sneak peak at ModBlock and get an order going for this fabulously one-of-a-kind magazine. Once you’ve placed your pre-order, we’ll ship them to you as soon as we get them from the printer. We expect that to be around the last week of March.

Your customers are going to love this magazine and we know you will too! Let’s go make cool stuff together!

The pricing will be the same as for BLOCK Magazine:

Wholesale: $3.25 (Your Cost)
Retail: $5.99
Minimum Quantity: 12
