I’ve got another five blocks from the Loyal Union Sampler finished. They’re all in the book by Jennifer Chiaverini.
This one is called Slave Chain. It’s supposed to be appliquéd but I made my own templates and pieced it instead.
Second is Spotsylvania Court House. I like the thin frame around the rhombus.
This is Spurs.
Next is Storm at Sea which was very tricky in a 6 inch block!
Last but not least is Summer Nights.
Here’s the virtual quilt so far.

/ November 2, 2018I was always going to love the Storm at Sea best, but the Courthouse one is lovely too.

/ November 7, 2018One day I’ll make a quilt with all Storm at Sea blocks. There’s so many options for colour placement the give amazing results.

/ November 7, 2018You’re right, I’ve seen some really outstanding quilts with so much movement and colour in them, all made with that one block.

/ November 3, 2018I’m going to have to try a Storm at Sean block because I love the curved optical illusion of all those straight lines! I agree with Kate though: the Court House block is gorgeous!

/ November 7, 2018I didn’t expect you to like the Storm at Sea one. I really like illusion blocks.

/ November 12, 2018Despite its name, I love the Slave Chain block! Right now I´m working on a Storm at Sea quilt, but in a bigger size 🙂 It´s a secret gift for one of my nieces, so I cannot show it yet 🙂
