WIP Wednesday: Building a city

Man, things have been busy around here. I still need to blog about spring break and Easter, not to mention my finished Into the Woods baby quilt (that post will be up tomorrow), but for today, just a quick WIP check-in. After finishing the Into the Woods quilt, I decided to take a little break from projects for other people and work on something for me (what a novel concept), so I dove back into my Patchwork City sampler quilt. First, here are the two blocks I finished during my QuiltCon class with Elizabeth Hartman.

Haircut

 

Onramp (Probably my favorite so far. Love these colors!)

This week, I managed to finished the Duplex block that I started in the workshop:

And I added three more blocks to the finished pile:

 

Fence

 

Donut Shop

Crosswalk

These blocks are so addicting, and I'm loving the scrappy nature of this project. I also love that it's a sampler, so I keep getting to try new things instead of making the same block over and over. I suspect I'll have to set this aside before too long to work on some other pressing projects, but this one will be great to have on the sidelines to pull out when I have time. Just 69 blocks to go...
