    Default Sampler quilt for one of our own

    I am part of a member swap and our swap leader has had a difficult time lately. I asked if the swap members would be willing to make some blocks and I would put them together into a quilt for her. Below is the finished quilt which will be mailed on Saturday. SheriR kept me going on this project and I got a lot of great ideas for the FMQ from Feline Fanatic. This was done on my Baby Lock Quilter's Professional mid arm machine. I hand appliqued the borders and everyone signed their blocks. I was really pleased at how it came out!
