This is the final block of the Saturday Sampler that I was doing from
Leah's Quilt Gallery. Unfortunately, it will be the last Saturday sampler. Leah's is closing. This quilt shop is dear to my heart. It is where I took my first quilt class. This is also the place I met the other two Amigos,
Karene and
Joy. There are so many ladies I have met there that I can call a friend, I cannot begin to name them.
I decided I should crop all my blocks and add a sashing to them. I didn't buy the finishing kit because I wasn't all that crazy about it.
Then I added the final border. I think it may be a bit wide, I may crop an inch or two off before I pin baste it. Tomorrow I will piece my backing, a nice mottled green flannel. I will also get my binding ready.

Wasn't that last block fun! I just finished mine and immediately came down to see what you were up to! It is GORGEOUS! I love it! I'm in the process of putting the green sashing/outer triangles on my squares.....and it's getting really exciting!
I too will miss Leah's! We must hold frequent "Janet's Class Reunions!"
:)
Nice job on the Sat Sampler !!! Hope mine turns out just as nice. My two amigos are WAY ahead of me on this project so I better get my hind end in gear ! Anybody, stalking Janet yet....teehee !!!
It's beautiful! Sorry to hear about your quilt shop closing. Is that where "stitch and bitch" was too? :-)
Sorry to hear about your quilt shop closing. It's sad to hear of another hangout closing.
I love what you've done with your blocks. You're quilt is lovely.
