AMY'S SIMPLE SAMPLER QUILT ALONG WEEK 3

I know I am behind ,but I get it done eventually sort of reminds me of school LOL!! I have also the week 4 almost finished ,but it was so hot yesterday I just tried to stay cool by not doing to much ,that is only the necessities like laundry ,cooking and cleaning which is quit a bit come to think of it Sunday is the only day I have off so I think I am doing OK, so long for now !!

AMY'S SIMPLE SAMPLER QUILT ALONG WEEK 2

I finally have the week two blocks done, I have made my own measurements I used metrics so mine are about 34-35 cm edge to edge and I did make a mistake at first and quickly corrected it, the more seams you have ,you must add more cm for the allowance in order for the result to be 34-35 , its amazing how quick one learns from mistakes.

And this is the second block ,my colors are more bold it looks like one of the previous block might not go very well with my color pallet that I am going with I might have to change one, will all the mistakes that I make I will make a scrap
quilt with the pieces , so long for now.

Amy's simple sampler quilt along

Finally I got time on Sunday yesterday to start on my blocks, first I had to go through my stash to pick out the fabrics and between doing house work night came before I got to cutting . For the bottom block I used two shirts that a friend of mine gave me a while back I think they work well this is actually block two.This is block one and I used the green also from a shirt I once bought at the flea market , the red checked is store bought .
I am sort of behind , they haven't been sewn up yet ,that part will be easy the hardest part was deciding on the fabric which is allot of fun to get all my stash out.

My first quilt along from Amy's creative side

I decided to partipate in a quilt along I have never done this before ,the good thing is that there is no pressure I can do it at my own pace. I like the squares I have never done this type of a quilt,a sampler quilt that is and it should be fun . I have plenty of scraps and to use up , I have'nt made very many various quilt blocks and I can't ever decide this will help me make a decision and to stop procrastinating I can't wait to start.
