Egg Money Sampler

This is the sampler I made as a BOM.

Thanks everyone. Yes, it's 30's reproduction prints. The scallop border was easier than I thought.

I can't take credit for the color choices, as the LQS picked the block fabrics. I did pick the border fabric -- twice. My first choice by the time I got to the border just wasn't working for me.

As for hanging it on the wall -- I don't have a wall large enough -- it fits my king size bed. To take the picture I clipped it to the gutters on the house -- and it still touches the ground.

Oh -- I forgot to mention this. The corner blocks are not in the book. I needed 20 blocks, so I search the Kansas City Star Blocks from the 30s and found 4 that I liked.

Love the colors! Is it 30's prints? I like the scalloped borders also. And the multi colored spots in the sashings are very nice.

Great Quilt!
