Community Sampler Week #12!

It's block release day of the Community Sampler sew-along!

Sawtooth Half-Block

This week's release is for block number ELEVEN of the Community sampler! For those of you that are new to my blog, Sharon Holland and I are co-hosting this block-of-the-week community sew-along, and you can visit my Community Sampler Page above in my tabs bar to retrieve all of the released PDF's so far to jump in anytime! We're so thrilled to have so many sewing with us once again!

Community Sampler Sew-Along

Today's PDF is block ELEVEN -- Sawtooth, the last block of our sampler! For this week's block we're making a half-block that comes together super quick! If you're in need of extra visuals for making this Sawtooth block be sure to visit Sharon's blog today to see her step by step how-to!

Week 12 -- Sawtooth Block

For my Community Sampler I'm using prints from my Love Story collection for Art Gallery Fabrics, and this week's block includes -- Soulmate Blooms Lust, Mixed Emotions, Delicate Veil and Daring Tribal Sunset!

Love Story for Sawtooth

This week we all get to enjoy easy cutting once again! I stuck right to my original fabric plan in my initial mock-up from the beginning of the sew-along. I'm actually quite proud of myself for sticking to a plan, because typically I change directions a dozen different times!

Sawtooth Fabric Cuts

When it came time to sew my Sawtooth together I couldn't believe how quickly this one came together! All the weeks of making HSTs has really helped my confidence when block patterns call for the make two at a time method. I have become such a better quilter because of these sampler sew-alongs and Sharon's perfect instructions!

I can't believe this is our very last block for the Community Sampler already! I'm so excited to see how all of our samplers come together in the remaining weeks ahead!

  1. Absolutely gorgeous Sawtooth Maureen! Perfect points too! I can only echo your comments re: this sew along has helped me improve my seam allowances, HST's and Flying Geese construction too. You read my mind ...I'm pulling my LoveStory collection now and considering using Tribal Noir instead for that 6 7/8" triangle. I DO change my mind multiple times tho , we'll see.
