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. *******************
IT'S ALMOST OVER..!! Pat Sloan and her friends have been ruthless...coming up with two new block designs every week, and lots of Bonus blocks, too...EVERY WEEK FOR A YEAR. Yikes. Only a week left to go!!

By now -- you know the drill. LP does doubles... |
|
of EVERY SINGLE BLOCK... |
|
She will be making TWO quilts from her SS blocks... |
|
Sometimes, the blocks are the same (or at least similar)... |
|
Other times -- they are VERY DIFFERENT... |
|
Since Linda fell in love with her Singer Featherweight, she has become a SEWING MACHINE!! |
|
Sandy does her block, and attaches it to the pattern for the block. THESE GIRLS ARE SO ORGANIZED... |
|
This week was AN IMPRESSIVE BODY OF WORK... |
|
These three sewing rock stars had a very productive week!! |
As you know, sewing has taken a back seat to CLEANING MY BASEMENT and getting ready for Mary. I kept forgetting to take pictures -- but, one way or another -- there will be a complete report on Mary's visit....
