Tuesday was the monthly meeting for our
"City Sampler Sew Along."We meet on the third Tuesday of each month.
We have a morning session and an evening session.
The blocks are just 6 inches square. The
participants are free to pick through Quilt Vine's scraps and everyone is very
generous with sharing their scraps. There are 100 blocks in all, and we are
scheduled to complete 10 blocks a month. Our goal is have the blocks completed
in November. We will take December off and come back in January and February
and work together on how we each will set them into a quilt.
Most
of us have decided that instead of dragging our sewing machines out, the time
spent together would be better utilized cutting out the blocks.

Some
completed blocks.
Some
of us (like me) have as few as 20 blocks completed and some have as many as 70
blocks completed.
I
can't wait to see all of them finished.
