Frankly, I've gotten quite behind on the Splendid Sampler. Remember those first weeks? We were so excited. We just couldn't wait for Sunday and Thursday to come. Ran to the computer or phone, first thing---is it there yet, is it there? Print it, run to the sewing room, cut & sew!!! Pat Sloan told us, calm done, it's not a race! Oh, if we had just listened!
But then other things came along. Other projects. Taking our time and attention. Hey, it's just ONE block a day right? For 100 days? I can TOTALLY keep on top of that. Ha.
Anyway, I digress. Once a squirrel, always a squirrel! No use fighting it. Squirrels got BALANCE! They can handle it!
Played a little catch up.
Ok, top left. HATED it. Not, I don't really care for it. I found it disturbing. So I re-did that block. Much better, right? Well it makes me happier!
While I was playing catch up, I got all the blocks out & put them up on a design wall. They hadn't all been together on a wall in a long time!
52 blocks done. Still behind.......sigh..... but not gonna sweat it.
It's about the road. Not the destination.
All your blocks together look super. It is definitely not a race, and look at all the wonderful skills you have used and the beautiful fabrics you got to play with.
ReplyDeleteI agree! and thank you. Are you working on the sampler too?
DeleteReally an accomplishment!
ReplyDeletethank you Jean! It's been a lot of fun so far. I think it's going to make a lovely quilt.
