Taking a peek sampler quilts made by fellow quilters is a wonderful way to find inspiration for your own sampler quilt project

What Is a Sampler Quilt?

A sampler quilt is a quilting project that does not repeat the same quilt block within its layout. A large percentage of sampler quilts are designed with twelve different quilt blocks but any number of unique quilt blocks can be used in the design.

A 19th Century quilt by Jane Sickle is an intricate sampler made up of 225 different patchwork quilt blocks and pieced borders. Brenda Manges Papadakis drafted and published all of the tiny blocks used in that quilt and today there are thousands of 'Baby Jane quilts' that have been made by quilters worldwide.
