Dessert Sampler - Blocks 6 and 7

I pulled out some of my Dessert Sampler blocks earlier this week as it has been a little while.  I just love having these blocks to work on between projects.  No hurry, no rush, just piecing whenever.    This is Block 6 of my Dessert Sampler . I just love how the low volume mix into this block, so fun!!!

And, then I was having fun, and so I continued on with Block 7.   Block 7 calls for a special ruler tha I had accidentally missed over, so I just made a plastic template instead and it worked great.  I had to fudge a few seams where I hadn't cut quite as perfectly, but all in all, I think it came out super cute.    And I just love the teal in the center of a sea of lime and mint greens:) 

And now, I am excited to go through my figgy goodness and decide which prints to use for Block 8.   Picking fabrics is one of my favorite parts of making a sampler quilt :)  It is just so fun planning out each and every single block!!!! 

So how about you . . . have you started a new long term project for the new year???
