Samoyed Quilt Success!

After a big Friday evening and Saturday of sewing I finally finished the Samoyed Quilt for Auctions. I have called it Never Too Many Samoyeds.  It uses the friendship star (sourced from a book called 500 rotary cut blocks- and what a gem that book is) and the Samoyed foundation pieced block by silver linings designs. I used fabric by Joel Dewberry, Amy Butler and Cotton and Steel with a few pieces from my stash as well. It turned out so beautifully with quilting done by Kyeen Marie Quilts a friend from my quilting group. Kyeen appropriately quilted Snow flake and flurry motifs over the entire quilt. It looked truly beautiful! A big thank you to Kyeen!

The Samoyed Club National Dinner was on Saturday 3rd of September and my little quilt went above and beyond it's reserve and achieved a total of $600! I was really happy that it was able to raise so much for Samoyed Rescue- a charity I am happy to support. Tucker also won big and got a new bed from the auction- but now I need to 'redecorate' - he needs a new quilt for it of course!! I may also get a few orders for quilts and cushion covers- wouldn't that be nice! 

I hope you enjoy this photo of Never too many Samoyeds.. Next up I will be giving you all an update on some swap items I'm working on.

Have a great weekend and keep on sewing!
