Summer Sampler Fun!

I came across a fantastic quilt along sampler on Pintrest recently.  I took a look and it was from 2011, but hey, if I haven't seen it before it's new to me!

This sampler has 12 blocks and a hand full of bloggers doing tutorials on each.

I am not a big fan of solids, but when I saw this sampler, I fell in love.  It is also very interesting to see everyone's blocks on the various blogs that have tutorials!  But, my favorite by far was the white and solids.

I decided to take up this project for the summer and do one block each week.  I will post links to the original instructions each week also.

I am really excited about this project!  I think it will be a skill builder and I am looking forward to learning a new thing or two :)

For my first block, I chose the "Mosaic".  

Here is a shot of mine before final assembly of the 16 HST in it.  (These will be laid out a little differently before assembly)

Here are some shots of the assembled block:

The tutorial for this block can be found at FreshlyPieced, just click here.

I am so excited to see how mine comes along this summer!
