The Splendid Sampler - week 3

Playing catch up and rounding off week 3 before today's block is released! 

Block 5, Simple Simon, was designed by Celine Perkins. This was quite a quick simple block to do, although it would have been easy for the seams to not match up if a little care wasn't taken

And the Tula version 

Block 6 was designed by Natalia Bonner and is called Focal Point. Intricate piecing again but I've found not trimming all the excess on units like those mini Flying Geese and pressing seams open, is helping with my accuracy.

And my Tula block 

I'm really loving the yellow print again here. Adds so much movement

Block 7 is due for release later today. I can't wait!
