Sampler Quilt Block Layout - What Happens to All the Blocks from the Tutorials?

By: Elaine Huff

I love sampler quilts. How about you? Have you made a Block of the Month sampler quilt - or just your own sampler quilt?

So all the blocks from the tutorials I've been doing are really adding up! What to do with them all??? Make a sampler quilt, of course. So here's what I came up with using just 20 of the 12" blocks.

I plan on putting white sashing in between the blocks - probably with a corner stone at each intersection. These are all 12" blocks so with sashing and border(s), this will be a fairly large throw-sized quilt.

Want to make your own sampler quilt? Just pick out your favorite blocks from the tutorials that are all the same size, head into your stash, and have fun!
