Sampler # 5


It's been a few days since I blogged, we took an overnight trip to Philadelphia with our friends. We saw some really beautiful and historic sites, including the Betsy Ross house. They had a beautiful antique Double T quilt in Betsy's bedroom and my friend and I both want to make one now!

I have been working on a challenge quilt the past few days. I also started a new sampler with my online sampler group. I am doing mine in two colors - yellow and blue/green!!! I am not sure how I feel about the color choice I made since teal is my least favorite color!
