Adventures in Atlantis
2008 BOM


Welcome to Adventures in Atlantis, my take on what the Lost City of Atlantis might look like if it were ever found.  There will be a new block every month.  The "building" part of each BOM will be avaiable as a free pdf download for one month only.  If you would like a reminder each month, please subscribe to my newsletter, SundropNews (see link on left sidebar).

The full block pattern will fit on a 12" finished block, but this size is not mandatory.  A 14", 15", 16" or 18" background block will give you a lot more space to add special touches (like the Sundrop Sea Critters) or to do some fancy quilting.  Or work with a 1.5 to 2-yard length of fabric and place things wherever you wish.  I'm just the architect on this project - you are the City Planner!

Designer Notes:
This block has special meaning for me.  My paternal grandparents had a small apple orchard, and Grandma's house smelled faintly of apples all year round.  Their house was a typical 50's ranch style, but my maternal grandmother lived in an old farmhouse that had been engulfed by the town and no longer had the farm to go with it.  I loved that old house with its large porch, high ceilings, ornate pillars and interesting built-ins. When I saw the apple murex shell, I knew it had to be a farmhouse.
