Sew Red For Women Blog Hop-Block Three

Welcome to Sew Red for Women's Block 3! Sew Red for Women was created to raise awareness of Heart Disease among women by way of creativity and camaraderie within the modern sewing community.

From February 3rd, 2012 to January 3rd 2013, Sew Red for Women will feature an original quilt block designed especially for you by some of today's most inspiring designers & bloggers. A special link is provided to hop on over to the blogger's site for details and instructions for completing the featured block.

And without further ado, this month's block is brought to us by the talented Katie of Swim, Bike, Quilt

Katie has been dazzling us with her modern take on quilting for awhile now, so I was super excited to have her join Sew Red For Women's Blog Hop. 
Katie's block is reminiscent of the incredibly popular Granny Square block, so I am sure you will just love it!  Head on over to Katie's blog for instructions on making the third block in our series.
