The class provided for making 10 blocks, and then we had a session on finishing the quilt - assembling the top, quilting, binding, etc. Most of it was not new to me, but I did see a demonstration of free-motion quilting on a domestic machine. Not something I plan to try anytime soon, but at least now I know how you do it!
My layout required 12 blocks, so I had to find two more to add. I decided I wanted more curves, applique, and paper piecing since those things were not represented proportionally. So I added this flower block, from Erin Russek:
and this paper-pieced block from the Carol Doak mystery I'm now doing in blue and white:
And yay - 12 sampler blocks complete and ready to assemble!
