Hi Marcia,

WOW!! :shock: This is one of the prettiest quilts of this BOM I've seen so far! :D Must be the Kansas Troubles fabrics, and of course your excellent workmanship. :thumbup:

May I ask what your ideas are for quilting it? I've kinda been stumped with how to best quilt samplers. Do you treat each block individually, or do you do an all over design? I'm working on a sampler that has 22 blocks, two of eleven different blocks, so was wondering how you get your inspiration. :?:

Again, awesome job!!

K--that was my problem too-finding one color fabric for my sashing that would work with every block. It just wasn't happening! I think it is a common problem with a sampler quilt. Of course you can borrow my "framing idea"--I am flattered that you like it. :)
