I am making a sampler from my favorites of the blocks in this book. I love Thimbleberries patterns-Always so easy to follow! Here is a photo of the blocks I have made so far. I wanted to use some of my turquoise fabrics, since the drawer they are stored in wouldn't shut anymore! LOL! I also have a selection of Connecting threads fabrics from their Riviera collection. The colors are so bright a pretty! I'm going to make 20 of the blocks from the book. I kind of like the idea of the basket blocks in the corners of the quilt-that's why they are where they are right now! I have not decided on a setting yet.
This is a photo of my Crab Tree quilt top that I finished earlier in October. I pieced those 1/5 inch squares as Leader/enders for a really long time this year. I acturally had a fairly large stack of little 9 patches left over, so next time I make an orphan block quilt-that is where they will go!This quilt is one of my favorite Bonnie Hunter quilt designs from the book "Adventures with Leaders and Enders". I kind of bought that book to have the pattern! LOL! But there are several others I will make as well!
Be sure to stop by Judy's blog for more Design Wall Monday posts!
God bless

I love it . Can't wait to see it finished.
Oh I love your Apple tree quilt. It looks great.
Your sampler quilt blocks are using very pretty colors, but the Apple Tree quilt is spectacular. I guess I will have to buy the book for the pattern too. I love leaders/ender type of patterns. You do beautiful work.
Your sampler project just shines! I love the bright colours you are using. I also am a fan if Bonnie Hunter's patterns.
