I’ve continued sewing blocks for The Splendid Sampler and enjoy not only the process but the knowledge gained from different designers.
Blocks arranged from left to right, top to bottom:
8- Friends Around the Square
9 – Local Quilt Shop
10 – Iowa
11 – Crocheted Thoughts
12 – Checkerboard
13 – Scrap Star
14 – Flying High
15 – Family Affair
The most difficult block in this set was the last block, Family Affair. It was paper pieced and I was extremely pleased with the end result. However, trying to align the fabric pieces initially so that they would fold over correctly was a bit of a challenge.
Check out The Splendid Sampler to learn more about these blocks and their designers, and don’t forget to take a peek at my first seven blocks.
