The Splendid Sampler™ Wednesday
(...skip this part if you're not new here...)
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. I'm doing this with my TMBC...and, therefore, it is my pleasure to BLOG ABOUT IT every Wednesday.
*******************
At the Featherweight Workshop at the Princeton Library, my sister Deb issued a challenge to the TMBC by sending some embroidered designs.
|
Everybody picked one to take home...and the challenge was MAKE SOMETHING... |
|
LP picked the top piece. And, of course, being our resident over-achiever -- she was the first to complete a project. |
|
Of course -- a COVER FOR HER FEATHERWEIGHT..!! |
|
With Featherweight fabric on the sides. |
|
LK is LOVING HER new Featherweight!! |
|
And look what she made!! Yep, inspired by LP, LK also made a cover for her Featherweight.(since she's leaving it up all the time now!) |
|
LP did doubles of both blocks. |
|
AND LK had another finished project to share with us.!! She made a table runner from vintage hankies (great idea, Mary Mulari!) SHE WAS ALL SMILES... |
|
Sandy shared her completed quilt top (from a three month quilt-along) |
|
Back to the SS blocks, Sandy used Mary Mulari fabric for the pieced block. And she is loving all the hand embroidered blocks (yes, that is sarcasm). |
