First up, is the Spool block designed by Melanie Barrett. This was another one of those blocks that allowed me to work on my paper piecing skills and I am so happy to say that I think I have it down now. This block went together so smoothly and I actually quite enjoyed this bit of paper piecing. It is so fun to do all of those little strings ;)
And finally, is the Minnesota Maze block designed by Roseann Kermes. I will admit, that chevron print might not have been the best choice. It makes this block just a little bit crazy, but I still think it is pretty fun. It just makes the focus of the block a little opposite from the original one, but highlights the secondary design instead. I like it enough to keep it, so it's all good ;)
And those are this weeks Splendid Sampler blocks. And I have to share one more little tidbit!!! I finished the 9 patch black and white blocks that wills serves as an Irish Chain setting for my Splendid Sampler blocks. I have been using them as leaders and enders while working on the blocks and I was super excited to finish all 72. Now as soon as the blocks are done, they will be ready to sew right up into the quilt top. So fun!!!
Only 16 more blocks to go!!!!
I hope you are having a very Happy Quilting Weekend!!!
