Neapolitan or Peaches N Cream?

Can you believe that it's 

week 7 for the

  Perfect 10 Sampler Quilt Along?!?

The quilt along is by Fat Quarter Shop and

It's So Emma. They made a great book of projects

and designed a great layer cake ruler to go with it!

The ruler is fabulous... especially if you use layer cakes.

I can't believe someone hasn't developed one of these 10" square rulers before!

This week was pretty fun...

we made these little blocks...

It always amazes me to see what you can do with a flying geese unit!

I thought I would use my chalkboard for a size comparison.

Here is the Peaches n Cream block...

I would like to make the full size quilt using this block!

I think it would be great to use holiday colors for it.

Can't you just imagine?

Next week is the final week for the sampler...

 Rainbow Sherbet and Rocky Road are the last two

to make up and then

 it will be time to put them into 

rows!

Are you quilting along?

I hope so, 

these weekly blocks are very doable :)

Vintage Christmas Sew Along: Past Present & Future

It has taken me forever to decide on my fabrics... and then 

pull them together... and here we are at week 4 

of the A Very Vintage Christmas Sew Along

with Fat Quarter Shop

featuring the Vintage Christmas

book by Lori Holt!

Here is a view of Christmas Past:

I can't believe that it has been 4 years since 

I participated in Lori Holt's Have

 Yourself A Quilty Little

 Christmas Quilt Along. (2014)

I really enjoyed making this one

so... I guess it's a given that I would love to play 

along in this Sew Along with FQS!

Each week there has been 5 little blocks to make...

actually, there are two size options in the book.

A 6" block or a 12" block.

This week I will be doing some catch up...

so if you haven't started yet... there is time to 

grab some cute fabrics...

I am using an assortment including Lori Holt's 

Christmas line Cozy Christmas!

Here is a view of Christmas Present:

There are so many options in Vintage Christmas! 

The possibilities are endless! I love the variety of

projects... you can see why I had a hard time 

deciding!

But for the sampler quilt you will need/want

the book and grab some fabrics...

Here are the fabric requirements:

or you could just order the kit that is available at

the Fat Quarter Shop

Here are the bloggers that are posting their blocks

FQS Perfect 10 Tuesday

This is the finished 

Perfect 10 Sampler from Fat Quarter Shop!

Here we are at week #6 in this 8 week 

quilt along with the Fat Quarter Shop!

I have half of my blocks made for this quilt and

I am getting so anxious to lay it out and put it together!

This week  I made the Sorbet block

 in "lemon and lime"!

And the second block for this week was

Mint Chocolate Chip!

Which was my most favorite ice cream 

when I was a kid!

The blocks are super quick to cut out,

especially with the Perfect 10 Ruler.

These prints in the Clover Hollow layer cake 

by Sherri at A Quilting Life are so cute.

I have enjoyed pulling a 10" square 

or two from the stack

each week and seeing how 

pretty these blocks are made

 up in this fabric line.

There are a couple more weeks in the quilt along...

but I wouldn't let that stop you from buying this book...

not only is there plenty of time to make your own Perfect 10 sampler...

 but

each of these

 blocks in the 

sampler are made up into

super cute full size quilts... 

all of them using a layer cake! 

Have you seen the Perfect 10 blocks by these bloggers this week?

Perfect 10 Sampler Quilt Along Week #5

Boy the weeks are going by so fast!

Can you believe that it's 

week 5 for the FQS Perfect 10 Quilt Along?

Dutch Chocolate is the name of the block below...
I'm always amazed at what secondary designs 
can be made out of
half square triangles!

If you haven't joined in yet... now is a perfect time!

I usually wait until I start seeing posts of the different 

fabrics being used so I can make up my mind

which look I like best...

so be sure to go take a look at the other bloggers posts

to see how their blocks are coming together!

We are more than half way through the 

quilt along now... and I am getting so excited

to start putting my blocks together! 

I am also going to decide which quilt block I am going to make

into a full sized quilt first!

It would very well be the French Vanilla...
(the block above)

these blocks are so quick...

and I can see whipping up some more blocks in

Winter colors for a special little gift!

... umm, 

the cover quilt might be the first favorite...

Which one is your favorite???
