Sylvia's Bridal Sampler




The ladies have been busy working on their individual samplers based on the Elm Creek Quilt series. Helen has patiently guided our newbies in the art of block construction, cutting techniques and ironing strategies. I will be encouraging the girls to upload pictures of their completed blocks to keep us all inspired! The original quilt is 140 blocks but the consensus was to omit anything with an arc, circle or appliqué! This should make the task easier and we may get it finished before we all turn 50!
So come on girls - send me you photos and lets get this blog happening!
