Sampler Quilt

Both Julie and I took a 6-month sampler class at our local Bernina store a couple of years ago -- and I finally finished the quilt this past year (2008), with Cathy quilting it for me. We were to make three blocks from the same pattern, but I only made two -- and I used fabric from the Thimbleberries line instead of the fabric that was provided. I thought it was interesting to see how different blocks from the same pattern can look when colors or pieces are switched around. My mother liked this quilt, so I gave it to her when she visited in December.
