I've always got more than one project in the works. I did a sampler quilt and I mean "totally sampler". It was hand-pieced, machine pieced and hand quilted and machine quilted. It had paper-piecing and embroidery. It had big-stitching and smaller stitching. Had a mix of batting. Some of the ugliest fabric and the prettiest fabric. It was a totally scrappy even the backing. I used a few different stitches depending on what machine I was using or hand stitching. It was my quilt and now belongs to a little girl who just fell in love with it. It gave me a break and that is what I often refer to it; the break-away. I have another kind of sort of in pieces. I also had some embellishments on it. I guess you could call it a crazy sampler but they were actual blocks.
