This week I couldn’t help myself and chose to piece 3 of the 4 revealed blocks on The Splendid Sampler website today.
Adventure Abounds – Splendid Sampler II Block
Adventure Abounds, designed by Kitty Wilkin (@nightquilter) was a block that I really wanted to make after seeing her Summer Adventure Quilt come together over summer hikes and other outings with her family. I wasn’t sure how the block would work with my prints, but my tree is in beautiful fall splendor and my ocean waves are reflecting the heavens that can be found beating in my heart, too!
Creative Harmony – Splendid Sampler II Block
The way Gundrun @gedesignsgudrun talks about fully taking care of herself in her description of her Splendid Sampler 2 block, Creative Harmony, resonates deeply with me, so I dove right in to make this fun block, too.
Metropolis – Splendid Sampler II Block
I also chose to piece Susan @suzguzdesigns‘s block Metropolis this week. I was hoping for a night and day vibe for the buildings rotating around the central square.
Be sure to visit The Splendid Sampler website to see the 4th block revealed today. And if you are sewing along, don’t forget to link up (on The Splendid Sampler site) your pieced version of any of the 4 blocks from today’s reveal to be entered to win a prize.
Yvonne, these are absolutely stunning!!! I love your colour palette for these blocks.
You certainly did achieve that night and day vibe on the city square. Those ocean waves with your fussy cutting are phenomenal – and so you. These are great additions.
I adore your fabric choices for your blocks. I’m looking forward to seeing your finished quilt.
I am also rather fond of your fabric selections, from the prints to the colors. Nice job on the blocks!
I also like your fabric choices. That first block is an interesting block, my fav is Metropolis.
Great blocks. I continue to drool over your fabric!
Great blocks especially Adventure Abounds (love the name of that block too). Can’t wait to see this completed sampler quilt. Take care, Mary.
Love all the fabrics you chose. They really show off how beautiful these blocks are,
