Yay! I am so excited you came to see my blog! One of my quilts, “Just a Taste” has been published in Quilter’s Newsletter’s special edition called “21 Best Tradition With A Twist Quilts” Winter 2015. Thank you, Quilter’s Newsletter.
This is an updated version of the classic sampler. Quilters use samplers to learn a variety of techniques for piecing and quilting. If you are a new quilter, this is a great one to start with. It used common blocks, Rail Fence, Log Cabin, Flying Geese and Lamoyne Star to cover several basics like strip piecing, half-square triangles, templates and y-seams. It is small enough to give you just a taste of quilting without being intimidating. And you can buy the magazine and the kit from Quilt and Sew shop here.
The beautiful fabric is from P&B Textiles Color Weave collection. You can see the entire collection at P&B’s website.
For your chance to win this P&B Textiles fabric bundle, write a comment. I would love to hear your thoughts! On February 2nd, I will randomly select a winner from the comments and Quilter’s Newsletter will send you this!

Lovely colors. I’ve done several samplers. This seems like a great way to learn how to quilt and basic techniques! I’m going to keep this in mine for anyone who asks me go teach them to quilt.

I like the Lamoyne Stars in your sampler quilt.
Its a nice twist on a old sampler ty for sharing………You picked the colors so nicely and the design wow…………….Its the hardest part of quilting in my book……….Besides ironing…lol…………[email protected]
Very pretty quilt! It looks so modern. Thanks for sharing with us!
I’m not usually drawn to samplers but yours is lovely! The layout is much more interesting than traditional rows and columns. The giveaway bundle is great — some of my favorite colors!
Great little sampler quilt, and I love the Textiles fabric line.
I always love solids, you can use them in so many ways – would love to win your give away
Beautiful, thanks!!!
I love the bright clean look of your quilt. Great for trying the various blocks.
Love your quilt. Great colors, great modern flair. Thanks for the chance to win!
My first quilt was a sampler – in 1992. A year later, I was using e-mail regularly. However, I couldn’t figure out how to leave this comment until I did the opposite of your instruction and looked above the post. LOL. Well, I always get left and right mixed up.
Forgot to tell you how much I loved 12 days of cleaning – my kind of cleaning, nothing about dust, etc.
Beautiful colors! Thanks for the giveaway.
Being a newbie, I love doing samplers. I love yours with the solid colors. 🙂 It might have to go on my to do list!

Nice color choices, and I like the movement in your quilt.
I love your quilt. I am selectively drawn to modern quilts and yours is a home run. This one may make me go out and buy this magazine.
Like the colours and block placement in your quilt.
HI, your quilt is so pretty!
Thanks for sharing!
I like how you messed around with scale – very nice!
I love sampler quilts and yours is really nice. I like that you used solids.
These haiku are here

Simple bright colors
in bold and varied sizes.
Fabrics are striking!
This quilt looks like it was fun to make. I like the use of colors.
I love your sampler. It is nice bright and cheery.
The colors in your sampler are wonderful.
I couldn’t agree more concerning new Quilters and Sampler quilts. The very best way to learn techniques and tricks for a variety.
What a great way to make a sampler without it being so traditional. I think the colors have quite a lot to do with the overall modern look. [email protected]
I really like your quilt, I am new to quilting and maybe I could do this. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day!
Love your sampler! I have not used solid colours in my quilting…yet! As a matter of fact, I don’t think that I have any solids, except for a few smallish pieces that I got from a friend a little while ago. Perhaps I should try some? Thanks for sharing!
Love the flying geese in there and the colors are beautiful!
Enlarged blocks…what a great idea! Your sampler is awesome!
Just A Taste is a great way to try piecing different blocks. Congratulations on having your quilt in the magazine!
What nice colors you have used.
I really love to see traditional patterns turned up a notch with a modern twist!
I love the stars and colors you used in your quilt
I love the colors!! Great job 🙂
Your quilt is beautiful. Love the colors you picked too. Thanks for a great giveaway. (debbie at wowilikethat dot com)
Great quilt and beautiful fabrics.
Love the colors you chose. Thanks for sharing & thanks for the chance to win.
Congratulations for being published. I love the idea of learning so many techniques in one small quilt.
I love the colors you chose for this quilt. The white background really makes all the colors stand out.
Your quilt along with your blog is simply fresh. Thank you for the giveaway.
I love the crisp, clean colors! And so smart to omit a border; the sashing does the trick!
Great quilt! The colors are so nice and the quilt itself is such a cool twist.
Can’t wait to get this issue.
Thanks for the giveaway and chance to win this bundle-I love cool colors.

I’m just learning Y-seams and flying geese technique(s) so your pattern is spot on.
Thank you for sharing the P&B Textiles Color Weave, they are truly magnificent, modern and rich.
Beautiful quilt! I love the colors!
