Moda Sampler Block Shuffle 22, 23, and 24




We hope you are all enjoying this holiday season.  Moda is not posting new patterns this coming  Christmas weekend.  They will resume shuffling Jan 1, 2016!   So maybe we can all get caught up the week between Christmas and New Year's.  Or stitch those flying geese borders!




 
 
 


 


 


 

 
 
 
 
And a reminder to be working on your flying geese border.  Here is the link for the pattern
 


Happy Sewing!

Moda Sampber Shuffle Blocks 19-21





Happy Shuffling this week.  We hope you find a little time to sew between your holiday parties.  If you are going to miss a week, remember to print out the patterns.








I can see that I need to press the seams open on this one.  Too much bulk in cross seams creates uneven pressing.  I also think that it wears out faster in the quilt.  Do you press your seams open on blocks where several seams intersect?  I sometimes do.  







Remember to #modasamplershuffle your blocks on Instagram!  We would love to see your blocks.

Happy Sewing
