Thank you all! and I envy and admire those who can actually DESIGN quilts! I'm lousy at that and in picking out fabrics. I'm glad I started by buying kits like that one and slowly I can now get a pattern and find some fabrics. Growth, friends, growth!
Love you all.

Yes, everything is gorgeous! I just love the color combination of your blocks. This may have been asked before, but was this sampler planned or was it a "plan as you go." I love samplers that use the same fabrics in each block.

Edit:
Oops. I just read the post that explains that it was a kit. :oops: One of these days I'll have enough courage to choose a set of fabrics to make sampler blocks. Would you say that there were or more different fabrics used?

Sorry Gail, don't understand your sentence - "Would you say that there were or more different fabrics used?"
Yes, the fabrics all came with the kit in generous amounts. I'd never used templates before but I really loved the outcome!
Thanks for your comments!

Sure I can show some of the quilting, but its just what a person can do with an ancient straight stitch without a walking foot and a bit of imagination. I don't know if any of the quilting will actually show up but I can try tomorrow when the light is better for pictures.

There is a whole post on the quilt as others were so interested in the avatar block. Let me find it....

OK. some not too bad pics of quilting. Found the dimmer light was better. It was interesting to find different ways of looking at the shapes and try to bring that out. Much more complex and busy than it needed, but hey, I'm new to this!

I guess my fingers were flying too fast, or my brain wasn't in gear. Sorry. What I should have written was "Would you say that there were six or more different fabrics?" Don't mean to make excuses for my miscommunication, but I had stolen a few minutes from our kitchen demolition to get on the QB for a while. Things are so crazy around here. Hopefully within a week we'll have a new kitchen.
