Are we all keeping up with our blocks? The theory is that it can’t take that long to make just 2 blocks in 30 days, then by January next year you’ll have all your blocks done for a sampler quilt. That’s the theory, so if you’re a procrastinator….time to get caught up!
Here are pictures of our 6″ and 12″ blocks for April. A classic block in blues, tan and gray for your sampler quilt.

I’m also doing this fun BOM! You’ve never answered me! Is there a Flickr group so that we can all see the blocks other people are doing? Thanks for the blocks!
We do not have a flickr group. All the projects can be viewed on Pinterest.
I only have the instructions for the January Saw Tooth Star Block – way behind – where do I go for the rest to catch up?

I’m caught up. This is fun. I’m using your color guide and trying to find fabric as close as I can to these colors from one of my scrap fabric bins. I LOVE scrap quilts but usually go for the “planned scrap” look. This is a “just give it a try” effort. I finish the block and put it on my design wall and I find it kind of “works” with the others even though I’m skeptical at first. Of course there is a ways to go so I’ll have to see if I make one (a block) so far off I have to remake it! Bye for now.
I just finished my April blocks and I am all up to date. Thanks for the free online sampler.
lots of fun and easy……….just the way it should be!
Just found you this month. Anyway I can get the blocks from January – March?
Thanks
All blocks are available under Free Online Quilt Sampler tab on our home page http://www.countrythreads.com.
Thanks for joining our 30th anniversary game.

This is my first BOM project. I am thoroughly enjoying
this. I am up to date on the rest of them. I enjoy the
Chicken Scratch and hope to make the trip to the quilt
shop this summer. Thank you.
Thanks for all the blocks. I am saving them, and as soon as tax time is over, will sit down and have a sewing frenzy.
Glad to see the new block. Can’t wait to get started. I’m totally up to date on the other 7 of them.
