The Splendid Sampler™ Wednesday
The Splendid Sampler™ is an internet sew-a-long created by Pat Sloan and Jane Davidson. It is an EPIC sew along...
- 83 fabric designers have created specific blocks that feature
different quilting techniques. (paper piecing, fused applique, etc.).
- The blocks will be released each week, and are FREE to participants
until March 2017. (at that time, they'll use the designs to publish a
book).
- You can use whatever fabric you like.
- There will be pictures on their Facebook page, etc.
The new block designs come out twice a week....on Sunday morning and Thursday morning. Last Sunday, I got a dozen emails from my sewing posse...they were checking the website, and Facebook, and eagerly awaiting the NEXT new block. IT IS SO EXCITING!!
 |
| Jackie, in North Carolina, made the first two blocks using Mary Mulari's fabric. |
 |
| Block #3 is STUNNING (I haven't tackled this one yet). |
 |
| Lilly, on her Featherweight, making Block #1...although I helped her, she picked out the fabric and sewed the squares together ALL BY HERSELF... |
 |
| Sandy pins her finished blocks to the pattern. |
 |
| None of us are actual quilters....so we often need to discuss these new techniques. |
 |
| Linda P. does it over, and over again until SHE HAS CONQUERED THE BLOCK. |
 |
| Such an overachiever, our Linda...here are her TWO very different versions of Block #4... |
 |
| SO ENOUGH ALREADY!!! |
