Seminole Sampler Quilt....

I signed up for a class at my guild to learn how to do Seminole quilting. The sad thing is, it's not for another two months. *stomp*

I decided to look around the internet, and check out what was out there. Lo' and behold I came across a block of the month sampler quilt from thequiltercommunity.com

I'll be doing it in 3 different colors than what they are showing in the picture. My colors will be Ivory, Teal, and Black Kona fabrics. As shown here:

March's Block of the Month


Wow.. the center block is done! I have always wanted to do a Mariner's block, and that is what first drew me in to wanting to do this quilt top.. One more month to go, and we get the last blocks to complete it.

Here is the sneak peak of the upcoming Block of the month. It is made by Moda, and it's named Green Piece.. It starts in May 2010 at Pacific Fabrics.
There will be 2 blocks per month. Inside of each snowball, a person has a choice:
Wool Applique
Cotton Applique (If I remember right)
Redwork or Machine Digital Designer
even Photo Transfer.

January's Block of the Month



Here is one of the January's Block of the Month. There will be 5 of these total to make a row in various colors..


March 21, 2010 update..
YES! All five are finished.. I don't think I have never said I have hated doing any block.. This is one that I really do not like to do!! Here are all five laid side-by-side, not sewn together.


February Block of the Month...


I was finally able to get February Block of the Month done.. After having a cold, that turned into Bronchitis, then having the flu for a week, and my brochitis turning into pnuemonia after the flu.. This has been a total month from hell!!

I never got January's Block of the month done, but that is next... Hopefully I will have it done today.. :)
