Saturday Sampler

The Saturday Sampler Class I have been going to for the last 12 months has ended.  As you may remember I decided to do three lap quilts instead of one.  Last year I made one but made extra blocks so it fit a queen size bed.  This year a voice said make three lap size.  Next year I won't listen to little voices and will only do one.  LOL  For the next couple of months I will work on the sashing.  I am going to post a few blocks I completed over the last couple of months. The next Sampler will begin around September so I must finish these before that time. 

Sampler continued.


In this class as in past Samplers, you always start out with easier blocks.  As we progress, new techniques and harder blocks are introduced. Here some of the easier blocks. 




Saturday Sampler - Fabric 3



I haven't pressed this yet but this is called Luxe in Bloom. 


Saturday Sampler - Fabric choice 2.



The above fabric is for the Sampler Quilt called Kaffe. 





Saturday Sampler Blocks


I mentioned in the past that I love Batik fabric and was thrilled when one of the quilts was made for Batik fabric.  This is a picture of one of the twelve blocks for a quilt called "Autumn Batik"

It's been a long time.


It has been a few months since I added to my blog.  I still continued quilting and knitting.  I am retiring in 35 days so I am looking forward to more time to quilt, knit and blog.
