Red Sampler Quilt Along - Week Thirteen!!

Hello and Happy Monday!

Welcome to week thirteen in the 

Red Sampler Quilt Along

If you are just joining us...

 CLICK on the bold words 

above for my first

 blog post where I 

tell you all about it!

I have four additional 

12" Red Sampler Blocks

 for you today:)

First up is from my book 

Farm Girl Vintage.

I made my 12"  

Egg Basket Block on page 24.

For the next 12" block this week

I made my Holly and Ivy Block 

from page 41

of my Vintage Christmas Book

12" Holly and Ivy Block

And lastly for this week 

 is the 12" Sisters Quilt Block 

 from page 121

of my book Farm Girl Vintage 2.

I used another print from my STITCH 

fabric collection for this block...

and I love it!!!

I hope you enjoy making the

four 12" Red Sampler Blocks

 for this week:)

This is what we have so far...

18 - 12" Red Sampler Blocks

23 - 6" Red Sampler Blocks

And again...

for the setting that I'm using

(cover quilt from Farm Girl Vintage 2)

 I need 20 - 12" Blocks

and 

30 - 6" Blocks

That setting requires a background border

 on each block and I showed you how

 I add those borders

 last Friday on my YouTube Channel.

to watch that video and also to 

get a few sneak peeks of

 some of the remaining blocks!

I'm happy that we have really

 made good progress on the

 12" blocks over the last few weeks:)

Of course I had to take a few pictures

 of all 8 together on the

 design wall of my sewing room:)

Next week I'll be showing 

two more 12" blocks and one 6" block...

 then we will only have six 

of the 6" blocks left...

along with the label of course:) 

Here's a few photos of 

the large table runners 

from my first Farm Girl Vintage Book.

I painted three vintage doors

and hung a runner on 

each one for the photo shoot.

I chose these photos because of the 

Tumbleweed Block from this week.

Here is the runner hanging on my wall

 as I sew on one of my vintage machines:)

P.S. The chair is vintage too...

it was Mr. Honey's grandmas sewing chair.

She was a prolific quilter 

and so my Mother-in-Law kindly gifted 

me this chair several years ago 

because she knew that 

I would love it and the story behind it:)

Here's the runner on one of my 

farm tables in my kitchen:)

It's made form my Gingham Block in the book.

For the centerpiece...

I painted 4 tin cans that once 

held tomato sauce and decorated

 them with burlap and lace.

Inside each one I placed a 

vintage milk bottle holding a daisy:)

I made this runner from my

 Apronstrings Block from the book.

Isn't it scrappy happy?

I just love it:)

The photos on my vintage dresser

are of my Grandma Crane...

my mom and her brother and sister

and my Grandparents Ewell 

with my Aunt VaLene:)

Okie dokie!

I guess that's enough for this week...

I'll meet you right back here 

next week with more Red Sampler fun:)
