Wow! As are many other quilters, I am trying to finish what I have started. Three years ago, I started making these 1930's fabric blocks, from Bee in my Bonnet (Lori Holt). I did not have Lori's fabrics, darn it all, but I used what 1930's fabrics I had, and this is what I came up with. Not all the fabrics are 1930's, because I had to add whatever fabric from my scraps that would work for the color required. There is still a lot of work yet to do, as I have to sew strips between each of the rows, then sew all the rows together, and then a border. But I made great progress today!
I am very excited to have made progress on this giant project.
So, if you go to her blog and go back to 2019...all the free patterns are right there, still! I really appreciate this, because it is maddening to be trying to make a quilt and the pattern is gone after a week. Thank you, Lori!
As I was sewing along, I used the trimmings to make other blocks...I have a whole bag full of extra pieces and parts!! That is fun too...hopefully I can come up with another little sampler.
Hope you are doing well, each of you!

This is fabulous. What does it measure, it looks pretty big. You're almost there. I have a Lori Smith (not Holt) 1930's project that I need to complete. Hopefully soon.
Looking good! Your fabrics work great with the pattern.
That is a huge amount of lovely work...All those pretty blocks...good for you staying with it--now you can put it together...what fun hugs, Julierose
DELICIOUS, DELICIOUS, DELICIOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! I am so envious!
Julie- This is so beautiful! I love it! I am on a mission myself to finish things this year. I made my templates today for Lori's Farm Sweet Farm quilt that I just need to finish hand quilting the borders on. I am so excited! I have made the first chicken, Hattie and her chick in Lori's new sew along with her Cook Book Fabrics. I use my own fabrics and always buy 1 charm pack of her line just to see the actual colors. I use the fabrics that fit the sizes needed for the appliques and so I get to use some of her fabrics and mine too! You are an inspiration to me to keep moving forward on things. I also got my Flea Market Flowers quilt labelled and hung this weekend! Yippee! Have a great day! K- lkw2x6-apq@yahoo.com

great to use what you have on hand.
Perfect! Soon it will be a top and then you can move onto another project.
It's going to be a beauty!
Oh, this is very fun! It looks like such a happy quilt!
It is good of Lori to leave the patterns up.

A sampler is a great way to use 30's prints. This is fabulous, and you are so close to a finished top. Leftover blocks will make a great spring table runner.
Very pretty Julie - Nice to get to the point where you see the quilt coming together.
Love this! I also am hoping to get some of my neglected unfinished tops into flimsy status!
Super cute sampler quilt!
