This year's Saturday Sampler is a sewing themed quilt with a mix of piecing and applique. Block #1 was a easy pieced block, and Blocks #2 is a bigger block that's all applique.
This one is a dress form. My pieces are all ironed on, and ready to do some blanket stitching around them. The top few inches of the yellow measuring tape is NOT ironed on because it will extend onto a future block. So the paper is still on from the shoulder line out to the end.
I think that each of the applique blocks will have a touch of black. The floral I used in the dress form shape is another fat quarter I purchased in New Mexico. My plan for today is getting those applique pieces all blanket stitched - except for that piece of the measuring tape.
Also on my TO DO list for this week . . .
** quilt the Valentine pillow top
** make 2 more blocks for Scrappiness Is Happiness
** make 3" blocks for Sewcialites #14
That’s a fun block!
