Sampler quilt - take 1
6 Attachment(s)
As a quilter beginner (or beginner quilter????, quilt beginner????) I've decided to make a lap quilt and learn as much as possible during the process....
Only recently I discovered that I'm doing a Sampler Quilt ... Poor blonde girl :D all of the blocks are 10 inches finished and random color. probably I'll use the QAYG method..... This are the first 5 blocks [ATTACH=CONFIG]529421[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529423[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529424[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529425[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]529426[/ATTACH] I ve all ready done a leaf block, a basket block and 3 blocks with appliqué (but no photos yet). I want to include traditional and old quilt blocks any suggestions ? tks |
Very nice blocks. That is a great way to learn how to make them.

Very nice blocks. Are you going to use a sashing between the blocks? I'm a bit weird, but I like to see a punch of black with white small print as sashing material when the blocks are truly a scrappy look.

You're kidding, right? You've really been quilting a long time. Those points match too well! beautiful!
|
Great blocks!
|
They're very pretty blocks and so well pieced! Lovely job!
|
Super blocks. Can't wait to see the finished quilt. BrendaK

Your are doing so good with the points. I had to smile because this is how I started: practising different blocks and it ended up in my very first bed quilt. Keep on the good word and have fun
|
It's turning out great! Don't forget to post again when you've finished.

You are off to an amazing start and yes your points are way past beginning.
If you go to Quilters Cache they have SO many squares - some free, some requiring copyright - and many are 10" finished size. I think they also have info on how to change a square to the size you want. And you can sort by size. Good luck and keep posting your progress! http://www.quilterscache.com/QuiltBlocksGalore.html |
