With the change in my volunteer role with our local Girl Scout area service unit I've had more time to get back to my love of sewing and have made additional progress on my Tula Pink 100 Modern Quilt Blocks City Samper - my Halloween version.

Block 34 was perfect for this fussy cut witch print.

Today seems to be an appropriate day to show you more of the Tula Pink City Sampler blocks I've completed recently.  I'm enjoying making them and I'm starting to see the light at the end of this project tunnel.

Some bold graphic prints was the feature for block #26.

I've been able to continue crossing off finished blocks on my list.  Here are more recently completed ones.

I wish that showing this block 91 meant that I was nearing the end of the block construction but alas it did not.  This was just the start of the next batch of the blocks in the Haiku chapter.

Fussy cutting for the center meant I got the really fun result I was after for block 92.

Part of the fun in making these blocks is choosing which fabrics to use.  This is block 93.

There aren't as many blocks where I can use a larger print fabric such as I did for block 94.

Flying witches became the theme for block 95.

Once I added that block to the wall I took a picture of what they all looked like together so far.

Then I turned back to chapter 1 Cross blocks and made number 11.

Next up was block number 12.

I try to vary the colors used as much as possible to give the quilt more interest.  A Green print was the feature for block number 13.

Someone on Instagram commented that the feature fabric reminded her of the Pacman game.  I have to agree with her.  This is block 14.

And finally chapter 1 was finished with this completed block number 15.

Additional posts are in the works with more blocks to show.  Maybe I'll even be able to at least get the whole top done before the 31?  Time will tell.

Almost a year ago I posted that I hoped to have this quilt done by the next Halloween....meaning now.  Well that didn't happen but I am back to working on the blocks and am starting to see a glimmer of the finish line ahead.  

Here are some of the blocks that I've recently completed. This is block number 64.

 I'm mixing up the colors, choosing as I go along.  Block 65.

 I love the skeletons in this block number 76.

 The eyes became the fun feature in block 77.

 I went with the contrast of the Gray and Black in block 78.

 The bottom print was added to my stash recently so I used it for this block number 79.

 I finally came upon a block that worked well for the owl print.  This is number 80.

I'm continuing to make good progress on sewing more blocks so I'll be sharing more posts on those soon.

This quilt WILL be done before Halloween 2018!

I have never neglected my blog so much as I have in recent months and it really bothers me.  I truly enjoy keeping up with what is going on in the quilting world.  Thankfully the busiest months for my Girl Scout Troop Organizer role is winding down so life (and sewing) can get back to normal.

My family took a much needed vacation last week, got home Saturday afternoon and my new-to-me longarm was delivered on Sunday.  The room is still under construction and I promise to share pictures very soon.

In the meantime, I'd like to share the small amount of sewing that I have accomplished recently.  These are all blocks for my Halloween version of Tula Pink's City Sampler.  This Purple block is number 24.

My graphics designer is working on the cover for my patterns and I'm waiting for the fabric to come out that I want to use for the remake of my Merry Jingle quilt.  So in the meantime I'm working on a few other things, one of them being my Halloween Tula Pink City Sampler blocks.  It was fun to get back to making these and coming across the #100blocksin100days in Instagram didn't hurt either to get me motivated.  Here are the blocks that I've completed recently.

This is #76 and it completed the first 5 blocks from Chapter 5 Squares.

Then I was onto the last chapter, the Haiku blocks. This is #86.

I used a fabric that I recently purchased (the off white) for block #87.

I like the way block #88 turned out.

For block #89 I was finally able to use one of the fabrics that has bigger motifs.

Block #90 was perfect for featuring the flying witch fabric.

Then it was back to Chapter 1 Crosses.  I will admit that I'm glad I'm making 5 blocks from each chapter and then moving onto the next as it has really helped to keep me from getting bored.  This is block #6. 

Block #7 is next.

I decided to use all spider fabrics for block #8.

Block #9 was another one that was good for a larger motif fabric.

And block #10 finished out this batch from Chapter 1. 

Chapter 2 is all about Rectangles so here is my version of block #21.

I decided to use the hearse fabric in block #22.  Isn't it fun?

Here are all 37 of my blocks so far.  Having them all visible on the wall helps me to better make sure I don't make too many of any one color plus it is fun to look at them all together.  I have a little room down on the right of my project bookshelf but after that I'm going to have to clear off the left side of my design wall.

I don't know how much time I'll be able to work on these in the coming week but I'm going to try to sneak in a few blocks every now and then.  Are you working on a Tula Pink City Sampler too?  Check out the hashtag #100blocksin100days and share your blocks too.
