Yankee Notions: Finished Samplers

Erica Cannon has her Yankee Notions top done.

 She's standing on a ladder because she made two of some

 blocks to make a larger quilt.

Several stitchers have finished their sampler of the twelve blocks

from our 2020 Block of the Month Yankee Notions.

Ginny Bresette

Twelve blocks with monthly tales about Yankee Notions---

philosophical, cultural and tangible---versus Southern Notions.

Ginny's first block

The stories tell us about a large and diverse country with some

very different cultural baggage we carry into the 21st century.

Jean Etheridge's is quilted & bound.

She found the perfect Yankee Notions print

Dena Brannen

The bird print is a feature in each of Dena's blocks.

Shawn Priggel's--Cheddar and black and white

Denniele Bohannon's;

Quilting by Becky Collis

Sara Reimer Farley used a spool as a cornerstone

in her sashing.

Each of her blocks has an appliqued Yankee Notion, scissors, sewing machine, etc.

Sewing Bird

Becky Brown's red, white and blue model.

She often makes quilts for veterans. Lucky family

to get this one.

Carol Cook Morton's

Lisa Wagner

Lisa used a spool print throughout the blocks.

Catherine Lennox

Stripes & plaids

Dorry Emmer's #1. She made model blocks in two palettes.

This one sashed with prints featuring sewing notions.
