An Evening of Sewing

I spent last night and tonight working on 8 sampler blocks for my sampler quilt (Claudia's scrappy sampler) and starting a wall hanging for my MIL for her birthday. (If you know my MIL, please do not spill the beans!!! Her birthday is later this month.) The sampler blocks are "square in square".


I sewed all of the background pieces together for my MIL's wallhanging. Next, I will do the applique pieces. There is a plaid sheep for each block as well as a vine and flowers for the border and corner blocks. She loves sheep and I think she will like this wallhanging.


It looks like it will be good sewing weather this weekend. It is going to rain and I can't do my gardening!
