Free Fall Quilt Sampler (2023)
Inspired by the best season of the year, this free fall quilt sampler is comprised of nine autumn-theme quilt blocks. Each block is 20″ x 20″ and the difficulty ranges from beginner to intermediate, but don’t worry! This sampler is a great skill builder and these blocks are an excellent opportunity to expand your quilting talents! The blocks can be pieced together to create a 60″ x 60″ quilt top or used individually to make throw pillows, tote bags… the possibilities are endless!
Named after the infamous Saturday Night Live skit, the Sweater Weather Sampler has been created in collaboration with Abby of Abby Maed, Ann of Crafty Moose Quilts, Kristina of Cream City Studio, Dana of Carnelian Quilting, 171Emily of Dreamland Quilting, Heather of Heck Yes Sew Co., Tamara of Remi Vail Studio, and Rachel of Sew Joyful Studio.
