My green, brown, pink, and yellow sampler blocks. Been slowly working on these for 3+ years, but in a burst of quilting energy made 5 last week.

Sampler with a variety of blocks from a number of designers.

eccolo appena tirato fuori dall'involucro

each block got its own custom treatment and the same type of feather surround

straight lines work great in this block to define the pattern

Chloe was very kindly given a Lomo Action Sampler and some film by some friends on Talkphotography and couldn't wait to test it out. She needs to work on her finger placement but on the whole I reckon she did well :0)

This was my first cake (aka a sampler cake) for our Wilton Fondant and Gumpaste class. 6" double layer white cake covered in homemade kahlua buttercream icing, then white homemade kahlua marshamallow fondant. The daises are a mixture of fondant and gum paste with the centers tinted yellow then rolled in cake sparkles. Remaining fondant tinted blue then cut to do ribbon, drape, and handkerchiefs. Ribbon cutter and punch set used for embellishments. Lustre dust painted on after assembly.

a roll of film found in a recent camera show purchase. A lomography (gold) action sampler (quad cam). Looks to be Big Ben from the Westminster bridge (thank you Google maps).

Started a couple of new ones - this one has week 6 (chevron stitch) so far. I'm going to use this one for border and linear type stitches. The ribbon ended up a little wiggly -- didn't have the fabric stretched evenly in the hoop, maybe? It looked straight in the hoop but then went strange when the fabric relaxed. (Excruciatingly bad photo - the fabric is a light tan, not white. Not sure what happened there.)

Cross-stitched quotes from various romance novels in the style of traditional and modern samplers.

from my Claudine Hellmuth class. I finished it ages ago and never took a picture.

Quilt Sampler 2 by Johanna Masko

Pattern from Inside Crochet magazine.

 

This active WIP has turned into an hibernating one due to poorly written instructions, mistakes and typo.

 

Might come back to it at a later date when other pressing projects are completed.

Lomo Super Sampler. First roll.

Sampler, 1839

Emily B. Beams (c. 1829-unknown)

Morris Township, Morris County, New Jersey

Silk and linen

A pair of American Robins flanking a flower basket are the visual highlight of this sampler. Additional birds – including some in mid-flight – complement butterflies, trees, flowers and dogs within an uncommon zigzag border. The alphabet reiterates the traditional role of samplers as a record of stitches that might be needed later in life to monogram the family linens.

January - March, 2008

This 1955 jazz sampler somehow resurfaced from my mother's house. The sleeve partially nibbled by unidentified creatures.

 

Began photocopying the sleeve and ended up trying to recreate it. The original is shown left, my copy to the right. Made a mistake with my scissors in the upper left corner. So I made it look like a cut-out mark.

 

It's a mid-sized 10-inch record my father possibly received from a family member living in Canada. This record was mailorder only, distributed in both the US and Canada. My father wasn't into jazz but he kept the record anyway.

 

After all those years one track still moves me. It's Relaxin' at Camarillo by the incredible Charlie Parker. Camarillo was the name of the rehab clinic Parker had just left. Song titles were invented by studio personnel so Parker could stick to making music.

This was my first quilt, made of 12 different blocks. The beauty of this quilt is the variation of each distinct pattern. It took me 10 years to hand quilt it.

I designed and cross-stitched this sampler 25 years ago for the daughter of a friend. That same little girl got married last Sat., 9-22-07, and I'm hoping she and her new husband will have a baby in the next few years so I can use the same pattern to make another one.

For the Sept. Scavenger Hunt #11 - I made it.
