Idaho Quilt Blocks!!!

Nifty Fifty One Idaho BeautyQuilt Block
Idaho!!
 The Idaho Nifty Fifty State Quilt blocks are up online…all together on one page from all 29 of our quilt block swaps.  Did you know why Idaho produces more potatoes than any other state?  It is because the Volcanic soil in the state of Idaho is perfect for growing potatoes.  Though we did not get any “potato” quilt blocks to represent Idaho even though it is known for its potatoes, we did get a quilt block to represent the state fish which is the the Cutthroat Trout. The fish is in flight jumping out of the water.  There were a couple of Idaho
Beauty quilt blocks made and one quilter made hers because it  represents the bright stars of Idaho. The Redwork Idaho quilt block has the outline of the state of Idaho stitch in the center of the quilt block along with the state bird, state flower and the year Idaho became a state which is 1840 and that is was the 43rd state.  Take a look at these beautiful quilt blocks on our Idaho State page at www.niftyfiftyquilters.com/idaho.html  
Our Illinois quilt blocks will be up soon so be sure you follow our blog!!
