Iron Range Lunch Sew and Tell

To review, both Sandy and Linda P. NEVER missed a single block from the year-long Splendid Sampler project. Their commitment and effort was impressive.

Sandy and LP are sisters-in-law....and they shared their love of the Splendid Sampler 

All along,  LP was sewing TWO VERSIONS of every quilt block!

Because she has twin daughters -- she always planned to make TWO quilts...

It was a daunting task...

And she NEVER missed a block...

Sometimes, the blocks would be VERY different.

Sometimes, the differences would be subtle.

Remember -- there were TWO blocks every week...

And many bonus blocks as well.

She NEVER missed a block.

Both Sandy and LP were religious about doing EVERY BLOCK. AND then, the big mission was to figure out how to put the blocks together, using a Quilt As You Go technique. WHICH WE FIGURED OUT ALL BY OURSELVES...at one of our Library sewing events.

The finished quilts are ABSOLUTELY STUNNING...and I CAN'T WAITE TO SHOW THEM TO YOU...

But, alas -- not quite yet.  Linda's girls get to see them FIRST
