I can't say I was able to do a block every day as we had appointments away from home a couple of days. But I still managed to get seven done by skipping some of the more difficult ones. In other words, I chose easy ...
Anyway, here's the lineup for the week ... in no particular order.
Other than the Marys and Martha, I was not familiar with any of the other women. I think some times the author has stretched to make a devotional connection, but I am inspired to find out more of their stories.
I've had several comments on my fabric choices so thought I would give you some specifics. The primary background is from Sarah's Story (Moda), as is the rippley piece I used in Dorcas. Two of the navy pieces are from Indigo Gatherings (Moda). I also purchased a FQ pack of 100 Years (Andover) but I have been unable to use much of it since it has a lot of white in it. I've supplemented with some robin's-egg blue TOT pieces from my stash. When I first fell in love with the navy/light blue combo, I had no idea what I would do with it. I think this sampler is the perfect place for it.
That's getting to be such a pretty collection of blocks! It's going to make a beautiful sampler quilt when you're finished.
ReplyDeleteThe blues are a wonderful choice for this sampler.
ReplyDeleteI am loving your fabric choices. It's going to be a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteThanks for listing your fabrics, Libby. I used lots of indigos years ago for the Snowball quilt top I made...yet to be quilted, sigh. I just love the way you are combining the lights, mediums and darks. As we know not all blues play well together, but yours are having a ball!
