I just started working on this absolutely gorgeous sampler, and I've been really enjoying it so far! It's great practice and will make a beautiful piece to hang in my apartment. Love it! : )
Pattern: Daisychain ABCs by Alicia Paulson.
Here are my blocks for the 3x6 sampler bee. This is my first time participating and I had a great time!
pattern used is the Starry Web pattern from Quilter's Cache.
I've planted a variety of tomatoes, and some are just ripening. We have sungold on top, red racer on the left and chocolate sprinkles on the right.
A welcome present for the new minister at my unitarian universalist church. Images original me (pretty much freehand.)
Quote from Colbert Report:
"Reason has been a part of organized religion ever since two nudists took dietary advice from a talking snake."
It's a real "sampler", in that I used a lot of stitches I hadn't tried before. (see notes on that image.)
I added 12 more blocks to make it a twin sized quilt. Backed with a flannel from Irving Street by Erin McMorris and bound with Summersault Pinwheel in Marine. My daughter loves it as it fulfills her wish for rainbows and lots of blue.
Thank you Faith, Lee and Kate for hosting the Series.

Jumping ahead finish all 99 blocks from Farmer's Wife 1930. It is such a great book!
Used all DS prints for this quilt and loving all the years collection in one!
We ordered the Bavarian Sampler at the Wirthaus Zu Bez'n in Munich. I have had pork knuckle before and didn't like it all. But we decided to give it another go. Everything in this dish was amazing, including the pork knuckle.
Contents : pork knuckle, potato dumplings, pork slices, sausages, sauerkraut, red cabbage and duck.
Small 35mm plastic camera that has a rotating blade behind the four lenses thereby exposing the film to one lens at a time before you wind on to the next, this is a copy of the action sampler cameras and Newcastle seems to be flooded with these at the moment, there are at least two charity shops near my home that have dozens and dozens of these selling them for £1 each brand new still in original boxes with chinese writing on them.
working on another sampler to test out some more idea for my on going thoughts from alchemy: enso. there are a few of karen's stitches here so it isn't totally and dog's dinner served with a pig ear!
Another Penny Sampler block finished! I was proud of myself on this one because I realized as soon as I started that I'd use up all of that "snowy" background fabric if I used it but I went ahead anyway (I have no problem cutting into a new piece of fabric but to use up the last of anything is always something I avoid). I've had that one for years and think it's cute for the forest so it went to a good use.
Four blocks finished of the nine that I should have done by now. I'm getting closer to catching up with the class!
