Quilter Betty King has been making some of the 12" Vintage Sampler blocks (available from my newsletter) and sent me a picture of the quilt she made using 13 of the blocks. I just LOVE her amazing quilt. AND she won a ribbon at the fair for this quilt. Beautiful job Betty.
How I love to see what peope do with these blocks. Do you have a quilt you have made from any of these blocks so far? Send it in and I will feature your quilt of top on my next post.
Today I am working on a wedding veil for my daughter-in-law to-be. I held my breath and cut the curve in the bottom of the bridal illusion tulle and then measured the length for her cathedral length veil. I based all the lace on and then gathered the top. I need to get some ribbon to sew the gathered top to, then I will sew it to the hair clip. Once she tries it on and I am sure the length is right I will sew down all the lace by hand and trim the tulle around the bottom of the lace. I'll post a picture when I have it ready. It really will be pretty.
