Just A Taste of Quilting

Posted byjennykaequiltsPosted inUncategorized

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!

  1. I love the layout of your quilt and your choose of blocks. Also the co”ours you have used sure make the quilt ‘sing’. Thank you for sharing

  7. It is a great sampler combination–and I love the colors. Would enjoy using the offered fabrics. Thank you.

  8. Cute quilt. Congratulations on having it in the Quilters Newsletter.
    Thanks for the chance at the giveaway.

  11. I love sampler quilts! I get bored making the same block over and over. And I have recently made blocks using solids and black for the background for a sampler, so these fabrics would be very welcome at my house! 🙂

  12. These fabrics look like they would be a lot of fun to play with. Your quilt is gorgeous by the way. Congrats.

  16. I like visiting different blogs to get new ideas. Your patterns have convinced me that in 2015 I must try a quilt with curved lines. That would be a new challenge for me.

  22. That’s a very “summery” quilt. Haven’t done LeMoyne yet; maybe this would be a place to start!

  23. I’m thinking of taking up quilting. Probably need a new sewing machine tho. Mine’s just too small.

  26. I’ve made lots of samplers and just love them. Yours does have a modern twist that appeals to me.

  28. I love the fresh spring look to your quilt. I’m pinning the Minky advice for future reference – thanks

  29. Love your little sampler quilt – so much cuter than the sampler I made when I was first learning (it is hidden at the back of the closet). Yours would be cute displayed anywhere!!!

  43. I really like your “Just a Taste” sampler! Great colors and a nice choice of blocks. Thanks for the chance to win the giveaway!

  45. I love sampler quilts. I have almost finished the Gypsy Wife quilt, a great learning opportunity, though I am over half square triangles.

  48. I think samplers are the best kinds of quilts because I’m always learning something new! The fabrics are beautiful. Thanks for the giveaway!

  50. I’m hoping to make my first quilt soon. I’d love to start with something aimed at a beginner so I don’t get overwhelmed! Congrats on having your design published – amazing!
