Shipshewana Amish QAL - more progress

a few more blocks, getting closer to being done

More Shipshewana Amish blocks

I am afraid I have been forgetting to blog about this quilt's progress. We have had a couple more assignments, both of the eight pointed stars and the Amish square in a square quilt block.
The eight pointed stars are both 9" and the Square in a square quilt block is 12".

Shipshewana Sampler log cabin blocks

This time around our Quilt-along has two sections, but the same blocks, eight six-inch log cabins, paper pieced. The quarter square triangles were done earlier.

Shipshewana Sampler section 2

Another section assigned and completed.

Shipshewana Sampler section 4

The only applique block in this quilt. Used freezer paper (doubled) and starch to iron the seam allowance under, laid out using light box, pinned and hand appliqued.

A few years back Gay from Sentimental Stitches did a mystery quilt. I saved all of the patterns, and am now finally working on it along with a group of other quilters. Here is what we have done so far:







The original blocks were all in solids. I have been saving Jennifer Sampou's Victorian Wheeling collection for quite a few years, it has finally found its quilt!
