Bloom Block #7, Tweeds Finish & Splendid Sampler Blocks

 

Hello Ladies,

There hasn't been much sewing this last few day's as those pesky migraine's have come for a visit, but I think this last one is finally gone.  I didn't make the last Tweeds meeting but I did have a few items for show-n-tell.  The first two were my new patterns which you all got to see here on my new blog first.  The next is my project from the "Finish It" group at Tweeds, my number four was the "Great Pumpkin Harvest Table Runner".  The pattern is from Saginaw St Quilt Co, do you remember this Cindy?  It was started back around 2011 and I only had the background sewn down, the rest happened this last couple of weeks, but it is now done!!!

 

 

The next project was my Bloom Block #7 from Bee In My Bonnet.  This weekend Lori had a tutorial on how to make a little zipper bag, this lady makes the cutest stuff, I really enjoy her blog.

 

 

Last but not least is another new project, it is called Splendid Sampler.  Pat Sloan and Jane Davidson have put together this sew along.  Each Sunday and Thursday a new 6" block pattern is posted, I believe there are 82 designers who are producing new blocks with Pat and Jane and at the end of this sew along there will be a total of 100 blocks which will be made into a book some time in 2017.  Meanwhile we are getting these patterns free and can use any color choices we want, we can also choose which blocks to make.  Below are my first five blocks, these are also fun to make and I can't wait to see what the quilt will look like when it is done.  Heck with 100 blocks, I might get two quilts. If you would like to join in and sew a few blocks for yourself look up "Splendid Sampler".

 

 

 

I am also working on a couple more new patterns and as soon as they are done I will post them here for you to see first.

 

Thank you to the ladies who have e-mailed me and let me know what you are working on, I appreciate the feed back.  If you would like the pictures of your projects up, just send me the photos through e-mail and I will share your finishes with our friends.

 

Have a wonderful week!!!
