This is my version of Lori Holt's Red Sampler quilt! I followed along as best as I could, but then took a turn along the way ..... added an applique sashing and ..... well, my version turned out so different than hers. I love her version, but love my version too.
There are only have a few more days left this month to get the binding done on my April challenge quilt! This is the home stretch. After this, there will be a sleeve and a label to add to complete the challenge.
My "Red Sampler" is now a top! So thrilled how it turned out. I did take some liberties with the blocks and substituted some of the 6" blocks. Thank you, Lori Holt from Bee In My Bonnet for having this quilt-along.
Well, I'm not going to wait any longer. All my blocks that I want to do are now done. Any more blocks can go on the backing. There are a few misfits because of fabric chosen and they will be perfect there. Sewing of the rows has commenced and I will be happy to finally have this project as a top and off my design wall.
All the applique sashings are now done! Yippee!
Just three big blocks and four smaller blocks and this top will be done.
This is where my project is at! Borders are almost done! A few more blocks have been added to the center. This is where I choose which blocks to do as my quilt will not have all of them. More sashings have been done. Another 3 weeks or so and then this top can be assembled.
Work is progressing on my version of Bee In My Bonnet's "Red Sampler" and I'm quite pleased with how it is coming along. The sashings give it an entirely different look.
