February Saturday Sampler Blocks

Here are the blocks for February. We are loving all of them, for different reasons. Following is the purple and green color way. The block is shown in the center, we decided to put ours together using this pattern. We have kits if you are interested.

Betty, who works at Valley Fabric Shop is assembling her blocks with this pattern. (The 9" block forms the center of this larger 16" unit.) We also have kits for this option. Both ways of putting blocks together will create amazing quilts with secondary patterns. Don't you just love being a quilter?!

And here is our western applique block. This quilt is designed with a specific finished quilt in mind. Unlike the patchwork blocks, this quilt will not requre extra design work by the stitcher. AND. . . it will make any cowboy happy!

We love our apron quilt!!!! This month's block is done in green and yellow reproduction fabrics. You can decorate your block as desired, we used a decorative machine stitch. It would be very nice with a little hand embroidery also.

We also shared a couple of wonderful recipes with our Saturday stitchers. A great raspberry coffee cake reminded us of Grandma's baking and we had to throw in a little chocolate toffee for Valentine's Day. All in all, we had a great day. Hope you will join us next month, and bring your finished quilts from last year's sampler. It is wonderful to see the creativity out there, and appreciate what unique quilts our lovely ladies make.
