The first 2023 Island Batik Ambassador challenge – the All Puffed Up Blog Hop – has officially come to a close, and we’re feeling all the emotions! Sadness, because we’ve had so much fun following along with our amazing Ambassadors, many of them having tried their hand at making a Puff quilt for the very first time. Joy, because we’ve been blown away by the creativity and talent on display with each and every quilt that was showcased. And perhaps most of all, a sense of inspiration, because we’re hoping that our followers have been inspired to try their hand at creating their own Puff quilt after seeing the incredible work of our Ambassadors.

One thing that was particularly exciting about the All Puffed Up Blog Hop was that many of our Ambassadors had never made a puff quilt before. But they didn’t let that stop them. They dove in headfirst, and the results were stunning. We loved seeing their creativity and ingenuity as they navigated the challenges of making a Puff quilt, and we’re so happy that they all nailed the challenge.

So, without further ado, let’s take a look at all 25 of the incredible quilts created during the All Puffed Up Blog Hop. We’re sure you’ll be as blown away as we were by the talent and creativity on display. And who knows? Maybe you’ll be inspired to create your own puff quilt, too!
