045 ~ a Sampler....of sorts....

Our friend Sheryl came all the way across the country to visit with us.......back in October last year.....what a treat it was to see her. (Of course I needed to make her a quilt!!!) And....we did put her to work for a bit with our Grape harvest season, so it was only fair that she'd have to take her quilt home with her...right?
Here are the stacks of HSTs. That's how it started....
It's a sampler quilt - of sorts...   There are 72 different blocks, with 72 different fabrics. Each block has 16 HSTs in it. It's certainly colourful!! Interesting how a couple of the colours stand out more than the rest.
Kaffe Fassett looks good anywhere doesn't it?
Here's a closer look at a couple of blocks...
For the backing I used a patchwork fabric, and a light blue paisley print. They fit the bill.
