Comfy Cozy Christmas and a Pieceful New Year

Christmas Sampler Quilt


I pieced this Christmas quilt in Mary Lou Scott’s sampler class many years ago.  I always refer to this class as my ‘Master Quilting Class’ as Mary Lou was a master quilter who taught many quilters.  Each week we would get together make a new block and learn some new techniques.  One week Mary Lou would teach us several ways to hand appliqué, another week she would teach us several ways to machine appliqué, every week new piecing magic.  I learned so much in this class and took away my own favourite techniques which I use to this day.

Wishing you a comfy cozy Christmas and a pieceful New Year ~ Edith at Inch by Inch Quilting.

    2. Why didn't I think of that before? She has made some wonderful quilts. I am visiting Calgary in February so I will take some pictures and write a post on them.
