I Have Been Sewing Too

I was looking at this blog and it doesn't appear that I've done much sewing recently!  I seem to have posted about other things.  So here are a couple of pictures of what I have been doing.
I'm working on a sampler quilt from Lynne Edwards' book and have just four more blocks to go before I can start arranging them, adding block borders, sashing, quilt borders...and I also have to decide whether I'm going to quilt as I go - which is what I'm considering.
 I've been looking at a couple of posts Leah Day did a while back about quilting a sampler quilt and they are inspiring me and filling me with terror too!

Also, some lovely visitors to the Blogger's Quilt Festival have commented that they would like to see some close up images of the detail of my wallhanging so I've added some pictures to my BQF post here.

    Thanks for your other blog: Sashiko did it!

  2. I love Lynne Edwards' Sampler Books, good reference books, though my d-i-law has the first one at the moment as she wants to attempt patchwork. The method for flying geese is really good - have used lots of times.
