It has been a long time since my last post, but life happens. I've been in the valley of losing a good friend and a father-in-law and comforting close friends who have lost loved ones - all in the last month. It's more than the usual 3, so today I was determined to sew, be refreshed and take baby steps forward :)
A week ago, I cut out pieces for a shop sample. A few are from the Batik Peppermint Patty Christmas collection. The fabrics are beautiful and wonderful to work with. I wish you could see them up close.
Over the weekend I pieced it all together!
This quilt was from Kathy Brown's Book and it's called "Take 5 Takes a Walk Around The Block". It's a great beginner's quilt and a good stash buster. The blocks are 12" finished, the inner border is 2" finished, and outer border will be 8" finished. It's a great snuggler! I look forward to Mike's creative quilting to give it the WOW factor.
I'm anxious to get back to Patriots in Petticoats. I still have soooo many blocks to catch up on. Maybe this week I can start on a new block :)
It's been a nice weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!
