    Default "Sisters" quilt
    I participated in a block of the month quilt-along last year with Aby Dolinger (http://abyquilts.blogspot.com). She offered patterns for a 12" block and a similar 6" block each month, hence the name "Sisters." I used a print with words on it to tie the scrappy blocks together, and named my throw "Encouraging Words." I quilted each rectangular section in a grid using my home machine.

    That’s really neat, MKotch- I love the contrast between the different block sizes and your choice of fabrics makes all work!

    Great finish...I would like the challenge of constructing the different size blocks. You did a wonderful job both with piecing and quilting.

    I really like your piecing and your quilting. Love the look , you must have washed it and it looks so good.

    Very nice! Was the layout part of the quilt along or did you design it yourself? Either way, it is very intriguing.

    I love how all the blocks, though different, are still cohesive with the colors and layout you chose. I really really like this sampler quilt!
