A while ago, I posted about making a Thimble Blossoms sampler. I will never have enough time to make all of her beautiful quilts, so this is the next best thing. One of my blogging friends called it a Quilt-As-You-Go-Adventure. I really liked the name, so it stuck! The top is still in parts but it's at least progress, yay.

I absolutely feel in love with the Dapper block, it would make a great baby boy blanket. This might have to become a full quilt. It's super easy and looks complicated, my favorite kind :)
Now the bottom half needs to come together, but at least now I am half way done! How is everyone else doing on their WIPs? This month is almost over.

I like your color scheme! So soft! I really like the colors you chose for the swoon block! I've never made any of her patterns, but this sampler is looking pretty tempting!
ReplyDeleteThe dapper block is lovely! How fun to get to sample a lot of things and figure out what really speaks to you.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a good idea! I don't usually like samplers, but yours is lovely with the bigger squares. I love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! Like the sucker I am, I made the whole Swoon quilt. And my mom wants a Fireworks quilt for her king-sized bed. I'm in trouble. This sampler, though, is going to be just right!
ReplyDeletePretty colours! Like sherbet. This quilt is going to be amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat's turning out really well. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to try a variety of blocks without feeling overwhelmed. Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I've got a swoon pattern calling my name. But I do love your idea of a sampler!
ReplyDeleteAll those different blocks look great together. Such pretty colours. I am just thinking how the fireworks pattern would make a lovely cushion ...
ReplyDeleteI love this idea and the colours you picked! This might have to go on my to make list!
ReplyDeletethis is coming together so well. I love the Dapper Block too :-)
ReplyDeletevisiting from crazy mum quilts. This is looking good
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty fabrics, I imagine you are getting a lot of pleasure from working with them!
ReplyDeleteI just love Thimble Blossoms. I have yet to make any of the blocks yet and this is a great way to highlight the ones you really like. Great choice of colors too. It's coming along nicely, can't wait to see the finished top.
ReplyDeleteIt's looking so beautiful! I love that Dapper block too.
ReplyDeleteGreat fabric choices for each of these blocks! As you know, I am a BIG fan of sampler quilts and I really love the variety of blocks you have so far! What fun!
