Sampler Quilt

My good friend,Susan Blaylock, and I started a sampler quilt before I moved to Guatemala. We bought the fabric together and then split it down the middle so we each owned the same amount of the same fabric. Each week we would get together and choose a different pattern to learn. Even though we started with the same basics, we each picked our own fabric for each square. It was fun to see how the design could differ based on our color choices. Not only did I learn to quilt but our friendship was strengthen. Even though the blocks have been done for a long time, I recently sewed them into the quilt top.
Here is my finished quilt top.
And here is Susan's.

We started a new project while I am away. It is another sampler quilt but the fabrics are so bright and happy and yummy. They remind me of a quest bed in springtime.
