Continuing a Sampler Spree Quilt again

This batch of Sampler Spree blocks has an off-white background with a tan rose outline on it. It was a quarter yard piece width of fabric, plus a chunk that was 9″ x 12″.

I made 13 blocks using this background and scraps. Here is my graphic list.

I started with this olive green calico as the scrap.

Then I switched over to purple sparkling princess fabric.

I finished with green batik.

Here are the scraps that were left to add to my bin.

That is my eye candy for this week. Hope it inspires you to work on a project that you love.

What are you making today?

Later,

Lorrie

Quilting on a snowy, icy day

Nothing like a snowy, and very icy day, with no where to go and no one to teach. Our first true snow day from school! Unfortunately, it is not mostly snow. Yuck!

Here is my first and most ambitious project for the day:

This is the 5th dresden scrap plate…only 7 more to go! I do have the next one ready to be basted onto to the background fabric. That might get done today…or maybe not.

I also have a nice pile of ironed scraps to cut with the accuquilt cutter. I found a scrap that is older than my 31 year old son. That is a topic for another day, too.
