Saturday Sampler
 

Vicki McGowen designed three quilts using 12" pieced and appliqué blocks. The pieced blocks are traditional blocks, but will include some with more challenging options. The add-on appliqué will include traditional Folk Art designs with bunnies, birds, pineapples, flowers, and wreaths. They may be hand or machine appliquéd.

The setting arrangement shown uses all 24 blocks plus a bit of vine appliqué in the middle border.

The sampler program is $22.50 for the first month. If you bring to the next month’s meeting your finished pieced block, then the next pieced block is FREE.

You must attend the monthly meetings. We will give you a “Get Out of Jail Free” pass that would enable you to get a pieced block that you missed for free as if you had finished it prior to the meeting. Note that this pass can only be used once.
