I've completed week 4 for the Tula Pink City Sampler quilt along hosted on Instagram by Angie of Gnome Angel. More rectangular blocks this week. I have no idea what is on the horizon, since I'm currently zero blocks ahead. ;-) I'm really enjoying the challenge of fussy cutting and matching seams, as you can see in blocks 24 and 27. Some instagram friends thoughtfully offered me some fabric with critters so I can add some more cute little faces to my upcoming blocks. I received two packages today. :-)
See all the blocks I've made on Instagram at #sgq100blocks and check out everyone's blocks at #100days100blocks2017.
Check out my week 5 blocks.

Have you seen the fussy cut sampler sew along? I was drooling over them yesterday and today I've got more eye candy!! Looking good:)

Post authorThanks, Emily! I have heard of it, but I haven't looked closely yet. I'll have to check it out! Are you participating in the Fussy Cut Sew Along?
Paige @ Quilted Blooms
Love seeing these all together! What progress!
sarah
Post authorThank you, Paige. I'm a little surprised I'm keeping up with the quilt along.
Yvonne @Quilting Jetgirl
The blocks are definitely benefiting from your careful placement, and how lovely to get happy fabric mail from friends to help!
sarah
Post authorThank you, Yvonne. Quilters can be so generous. :-)

I love your blocks, the trees are my favorite from this week, but both of the raccoons are at the top of the list too.
sarah
Post authorThank you, Shauna. You can't go wrong with the raccoons. ;-) This was the first Tula Pink fabric I ever bought. (I was apparently living under a rock before that... wish I'd been paying attention when Prince Charming was released.) And I love how the tree block turned out, too! I need to figure out which critters I can work into the upcoming blocks. Next up, tigers.

Love your colour and fabric choices! You've done a spectacular job of stitching the raccoons together and keeping their faces recognisable - that must have taken some work! It was worth the effort!
sarah
Post authorThank you so much, Sue. That block took so long, but it's definitely one of my favorites so far.
