Lexington Sampler Challenge: Block 3

The National Quilter’s Circle Lexington Quilt Block Challenge will only be available through August 8th!

It’s time for week 3 of the National Quilters Circle Quilt Block Challenge! How have weeks 1 and 2 gone for you? We’re excited to be working on our third block: The Prairie Flower!

For this challenge, we are creating the beautiful Lexington Sampler quilt, designed by the talented Susan Guzman of SuzGuz Designs.

This exciting 9-part block challenge pattern offers you a choice to make either a large throw size quilt, with a finished size of 68 ½” square, or a bed size quilt with a finished size of 88 ½” square. There will be a bonus block available to use in place of the center 15″ square, should you choose to make it. If you decide to make the throw size quilt, your challenge will end in Week 8; the bed size quilt will end Week 9.

If you haven’t signed up for the Quilt Block Challenge, there’s still time! You can sign up here to make sure you get the block assignments delivered to you inbox each week. And make sure to visit Susan at SuzGuz Designs to see more of her beautiful work!
