TAST first steps

I'm way behind with TAST, I'm only in my second stitch!
Already realized the "detaiched chain" and am now busy with the "buttonhole" stitch.
I had a problem deciding on what fabric and how I'll present this.
I decided to do something with my samplers and not only keep them in a box or a book.
So I'm doing a "TAST Book" and a "Quilt": in my book I'll keep all notes about the stitches, some pictures and drawings; the quilt will be made with all the blocks I'll this year. I'm using only two linen fabrics for this project. the binding will be made with the darker fabric.
