I got 10 blocks done for the Splendid Sampler.
I started out Appliqueing. I fused all the pieces onto these 5 blocks, and then sewed the pieces down all at the same time. This saved me from having to switch the thread multiple times.
Block #55 Dedication Rose
Block #56 At Home Anywhere
Block #63 The Icing on the Cake.
Block #68 Wild Roses
And the October Bonus Splendid Sampler Pumpkin.
Then I moved onto paper piecing, and completed 5 more blocks!!
Block #28 Stitching Fashion I've been avoiding this one since it came out, but I only had to rip out 2 seams!
Block #48 Whim
Block #54Shell.
This one gave me the most trouble. I had to rip out the same seam 4 times!! It could be because I was tired and dealing with crabby kids. After ripping out the same seam over and over, I decided it was time to take a break, get the kids to bed and finish it in the morning.
Block #58 Homeward Bound
Block #67Bobbin Chase.
45 blocks and 5 bonus blocks done!!
Linking up to Em's Scrapbag.
What great catch up sewing. Maybe that's what I need to do. Love the fun fabrics
ReplyDeleteThank you. I have about half of them done now.
Deletelots caught up on here, way behind with mine and as I cannot do FPP or applique have tackled none of them
ReplyDeleteFor Applique I do it all with machine, I haven't tried hand turning, I'm putting off the hexie ones.
DeleteWhat a fun weekend sewing you had.
