I have read all of the Elm Creek books and have the samplers on my 'to do' list. Thank you for organizing the sampler block show!
Maybe once you have moved and settled you might feel able to join us.
Yes the Elm Creek books are really nice and I am reading the Circle of Quilters - which Harriet's Journey is based on.
I have also made the Dear Jane Sampler quilt - and several smaller quilts - sewing has got me through this awful pandemic !
Thank you again.

Some samplers
Here are a few samplers I've made - my rainbow Sylvia's Bridal Sampler (which I sent to my niece in the Netherlands) and my blue and gray Loyal Union Sampler (which also includes blocks from Nearly Insane).
More fabrics for my Harriet's Journey arrived yesterday, and I'll combine them with scraps from my stash. I'll add white on whites for the background as needed. Looking forward to getting started, but am trying to finish a few UFOs, too, this month.

Your samplers are lovely - thanks for sharing. I like the way you have set your blocks on point on your LUS !

I have sent a private message to PatriceJ ( two weeks ago ) to make sure that it is OK to have this thread in Blocks of the Month Thread as someone wondered if maybe it should be in Challenges. As yet I haven't had a reply, so if by any chance this thread does get deleted look for it in Challenges. I have a list of your names so I will let you know if Harriet does get deleted !
