FNWF March


Thanks Cheryll for hosting FNWF .....  I do seem to focus more when I know we are sewing together...

I kindof had a FWD... (Friday Whole Day) and got through some of my School Girl Sampler blocks

The blocks are to finish at 4"....


I am using up Tilda scraps .....


some of them I really like... others not so much


then I put together a group, (some of which had been done before,) with their sashing and cornerstones


.. and added them to the other blocks.... 


 
Last night I hand sewed.  I am using a flecked fabric but the tracings are not easy to see at night....  it is going slow but I particularly wanted that fabric for this project.


Today I want to continue with Schoolgirl Sampler .... a couple more blocks are cut and waiting to be sewn....


Thanks again Chez... I am off over HERE to catch up on what the others did...

Have a lovely weekend.....xx

You are making great progress with the sampler quilt.

You are managing to get through quite a few blocks.
I am really surprised at how the blocks appear in the big group. When they are separate, certain colours stand out or do not seem to match. But when they go into the group as a whole they work really well and blend beautifully. They really do need to be together to get th e right picture. Love the way it is turning out.

Your schoolgirls blocks look great with their sashing. xx

Your Tilda sampler is looking good! Sometimes individual blocks don't quite do it for you, but they all look great together.

Jeanette said...

You may not love some of your fabric, but when the blocks are together they look fantastic. It will be a beautiful top.

I really love the Scool Girl Sampler quilt. So tempting but I have so many UFOs. You are on a roll girl!

Julie said...

Love all your Tilda blocks Fiona - some of those fabrics look to be from some of the older collections. I really loved the older ones & wish they would re-release some of them. Very pretty!

Louise said...

Oh, I adore that navy blue with the large floral! It reminds me of a bridesmaid dress I wore in the 1990's :)

Raewyn said...

Your Schoolgirl Sampler blocks are lovely in the Tilda scraps - and look good all joined and sashed. I hope you got some more sewing time over the weekend to continue on.

Lots of good projects going on under your needle. I also like to have a block or two cut so that when I get a minute I can sit down and start sewing right away!
