Splendid Sampler Blocks 32 & 33

Block 32 - Constant Needle

This was an easy one to appliqué.  I'm still doing fusible raw edge machine appliqué even though its not my favorite.  Best way I can think of to stay up to date on these blocks!

Block 33 - Selvage Saver

I chose to use just a few selvedges instead of all selvedges.  I am using two fabric collections from Fig Tree & Co - Farmhouse and Strawberry Fields Revisited....so used those.

I will be working on block 31 for a while.  Its another all embroidered one.  This sampler has had a lot more appliqué and embroidery than i thought it would.  They are cute blocks but they really slow me down!

Splendid Sampler - an extra block

Remember the dress block I made?  The original pattern actually had more to it than just the dress.  But I wanted to feature just the dress and use the other elements for an extra block.   Here's what I made:

Cute, huh?   The spool and needle were to the right of the dress in the original pattern.  I just added another spool.  I like it!  

Since I occasionally skip a released block this will have a happy spot!
