1880 Barbara Bucher Snyder Sampler Quilt Update

It has been a few weeks since I posted about what everyone has been up to over at the 1880 Sampler blog. 
Bettina has already started setting her blocks:
Satu has been keeping up as well:
Both Mary L. and Bettina have pieced their Kite's Tail blocks:

...and did a fabulous job!

  Today I posted the pattern for Greco-Roman Tiles, another very intricate block.
Remember that there is a flickr group here if you feel like sharing your blocks with everyone.
I know I sure would like to see what everyone is doing.
If you are following along, please introduce yourself as well.

This weekend I will be sewing with my DD, piecing a shop sample made from Marcus Brothers' American Valor fabrics collection.  I'll also try to catch up with my CW BOW blocks. 
What will you be working on?

  2. The Greco-Roman Tile block is amazing! This weekend I will probably not get much sewing in. The weeds need pulling and the dogs need washing not to mention the laundry, running errands.......

  9. I may be joining you, Cheryl. I canceled out of the BOM from Homestead Hearth. Just too many other things on my plate. But your blocks look so good I'm tempted again. :)
