Most of the blocks in the Splendid Sampler series teach or reinforce a particular technique. This block, obviously, was all about making and sewing with templates. I used to really dislike appliqué work but I’ve found a method that works for me and that I don’t dread.
The fabric in the oval is one that I always associate with Michelle’s Mum, Diane. I made her several items from or including this fabric and I only have a scrap of it left.
