My 35th anniversary sampler is now competed and hanging on the wall. I quilted it by hand using pearl cotton #12. Each stitched square is quilted with a running stitch. And each seam is quilted with a different stitch, crazy quilt style. And there is stitching along the border. I like this corner the best. The ochre and blue fabrics were both used in a quilt I made years ago. I enjoyed putting them together again. Disclaimer: No supplies were purchased for this sampler. Everything was found in my closet. So, the pearl cotton colors are not ideal. I would have liked something that stood out a little more. From a distance you can't see the stitching. But, the good news is you can't see any mistakes either.
