I joined the National Quilter's Circle Lexington Sampler challenge and after being 3 weeks behind have managed to catch up! It is a 9 week challenge and so far we are on week #4 (each week has been 2 blocks of same pattern). You can choose to make either a bed size or throw size quilt. (the bed size has additional borders). Although the original quilt is basically reds I decided to use a blue palette.....Here's what I have so far.....
Oh...….and here is the front of the topper I made for Irene's table...….
I guess that's all for this post. I hope Blogger has fixed the no comment notification problem...………….
week seven has a bonus block for the center if we don't want to use plain fabric or our own center block. I really don't like either of the middle colors here so I will most likely wait for the bonus pattern or find one of my own. Does anyone have a suggestion for a 15 inch center block?
I got this beautiful table topper from my swap buddy, Irene....I'm all ready for fall! Irene used the Swoon block and added the triangles to make the second on point background square. (ummm….I may have "made her" use the swoon pattern....lol) She also included some beautiful machine embroidery. I love it so much! Thanks Irene. Sorry my photo doesn't do it justice....in addition to the pumpkin center, there are quilted leaves also.
