Peeps! I finally finished this quilt. I used the origional 2X5 size and resized it by 200 and 250.

Granny Square. I LOVE the colors. This one will be a wall hanging for my mom's appartment.

Many mini trips around the world took 9 years of saving and cutting scraps and 7 weeks of sewing 5+ hours 5 days a week. The pieces finish at 1". This quilt is a twin at 57" X 72"

Triple Irish Chain

This quilt is for me. Nontraditional fabric choices with traditional pattern. I love it. I originally made it for my husband but once finished I claimed it for myself.
Keep it up, buttercup!

Mom's Pride and Joy

I've had this quilt stashed away waiting on the binding. I would find it, then I would lose it and that kept happening for 5 years. I finally grabbed it up two weeks ago and ironed it.  Come to realize as I'm attaching the binding to the back of the quilt that this wasn't the binding fabric after all. It was the left over 3" strip I was going to use to make a second quilt.  Again, life goes on, and on.

Took about a week to sew it on because of "life getting in the way". This is a twin size, I do not recall the name of the pattern and I've misplaced the book I got it out of. (This post must be sounding like a broken record about now.)

so far I've completed 6/24 projects on my 2016 list
