Sno-Daze Quilt

The Quilt Minnesota Shop Hop is about a month away. We are busy preparing for all the fun. Here is the quilt Mary Deeney designed for the shop using many of the Quilt Minnesota fabrics. The quilt is called "Sno-Daze". She recalls a week long event in high school called Sno-Daze, this quilt is a way of remembering those fun events. The quilting is beautiful. You must see all the wonderful custom quilting that was done by Patti Marrin of PM Quilt Design. The Quilt Minnesota fabrics are available at The Sampler for pre-order and will be available for purchase when the shop hop starts on July 30th. A pattern for this quilt will also be available at the start of the shop hop. If you have any questions stop by the shop or call us at 952-934-5307.

Back From the Minnesota Quilter's Annual Quilt Show


The Minnesota Quilter's Annual quilt show, held in St. Cloud this year was great. Here are a few pictures of The Sampler's booth at the show. Congratulations to The Chaska Area Quilt Guild(especially Tracy and Audrey) on the first place ribbon for the guild's raffle quilt, and to Lori Allison on her first place ribbon for her quilt. Great job everyone.
