TA - DA .... sort of....

All my Sylvia's Bridal Sampler blocks are sashed and trimmed

I don't know when I am going to get to sewing them together - I am still wondering where the blocks should go - I put these up randomly


Meantime I found some time to do a bit of catch up with Splendid Sampler blocks

Sewing Machine designed by Pat Sloan

The Constant Needle designed by Laurie Simpson

Simple Surprises designed by Amy Ellis

Dreaming of Dresdens designed by Jane Davidson

I'm still a little way behind - it's no race but I know I loose motivation if I don't keep up ....

Righto, Gotto Go.... Fridays are great days.... weekend to look forward to...

Wow, the sampler blocks are awesome. The look great just 'plonked' there. It is a bit quilt.
I have not doubt it will be awesome regardless of the layout.

Fantastic Fiona...the Sylvia blocks look amazing!!! Randon putting together looks pretty good to me!! Your other sampler blocks are wonderful too.

Susan said...

The problem will be the more you move them around the more you need to move them...if you get what I mean. Your SS blocks are gorgeous too - love the Dresden one.

Susan said...

Absolutely stunning Fiona. My tips would be to squint at the layout to see if anything stands out. Also, taking a photo seems to reveal things the eye can't see. And lastly, there are lots of perfect layouts, not just one. Have fun.

Jennifer said...

Well, Sylvia is looking gorgeous isn't she! I like your Splendid blocks too.....very pretty.

Your bridal sampler blocks look amazing. I am still blown away by the amount of work in them. Keeping them on your design wall will give you plenty of opportunity to rearrange them into a setting that pleases you.
And lovely working keeping on with the SS blocks, too. So gorgeous.

Wow! It's gorgeous! Randomly placed works for me! Esp. when there are so many blocks. You could make yourself crazy changing them out, trying to 'get them right'! Your sampler blocks are looking pretty nice, too! XO

Your Bridal Sampler looks fabulous set out on the wall. I know that you have toiled with many small pieces but that large project seems to have come together quite quickly.
