The year of the child- 2025

 

Today was VERY productive! Only four of us, but this is what we got done...
1. Sandwiched a heartstring quilt, which i took home to hand-quilt. (Two more quilts to sandwich in our piles).



2. Pieced a backing for Dee's Triangle/envelope quilt.

 



3. And then ... there were 'the bears/critters" !! Boy, did THAT idea go over WELL!








One little quilt was put together with a small group of Orphan blocks and a bag I brought from my collection of scrap blocks that were sewn into HSTs. The blocks  were trimmed to 9" sq and we put 9 together form a little quilt. Added a cute green backing, Maria sewed it and will take it home to tie it. It's getting paired up with a bright green dinosaur.

We matched 4 other quilts up, took photos when we saw how we liked the layout 
(placement), added fabrics for the backings, and wrapped them up with a corresponding critter. These are to be played with later. I'm also gonna see Kathy on Tuesday so she can take some to play with.

Really. Good. Day!

...ps... I hit the dollar tree store and bought MORE critters!!
