Have you heard about the Splendid Sampler Sew Along?
Pat Sloan and Jane Davidson have organized a year long sampler quilt sew along. They invited 83 different designers to created blocks for the quilt. Each week, starting February 14, two block patterns will be released. The blocks use a variety of techniques including, english paper piecing, applique, piecing, and embroidery.
Hop over to the Splendid Sampler blog and read all the details. Be sure to join the facebook group and get to know the designers and other quilters.
In addition to the patterns there will be lots of discussion, tutorials, and tips posted on the Splendid Sampler blog over the next year.
I am proud to be on of the block contributors and I hope you can join us for the journey. We'll first be discussiong the fabric choices for the quilt. I will be going the scrappy route.
