***DON’T FORGET TO ENTER THE ANNIVERSARY GIVEAWAY***
After completing the practice blocks for the My-Size Stars Quilt something kept nagging in the back of my mind. They sort of reminded me…of…mmm…
Well, Thursday and Friday I did some cleaning in my sewing area and found (read: dug down to) some orphan blocks. Some came in scrap bags and some were leftovers (read: mistakes) from previous projects.
After adding a little here, and trimming a little there and making a few more quick blocks, there was enough for a lap quilt (55″ x 55″).
Ah, orphan no more.
This will be a donation to Em’s Happy Chemo quilts.
Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming (the projects I was SUPPOSED to be working on when this jumped in the line).
Great project Deanna 🙂
Cool, almost an instant quilt just from cleaning your sewing area. It will be a bright spot in someone’s cancer journey.
Great quilt- how wonderful to have something finished AND going to a good cause! Fantastic!
Nice quilt! I bet it feels good to clean out some odds and ends and have a great finish.
i love it..i have a box i put my orphan blocks in and every once in awhile i take them out , lay them out and see what i can do with them..don;t have quite enough for a lapsize quilt yet but when i do i hope it turns out as nicely as yours…isn;t it fun what you can do with scraps, orphan blocks and leftovers???? just a little bit of imagination and you end up with something wonderful!! good for you and for us to see…
Deanna it is stunning. I love how all the blue tones work so well together.
Great quilt! I’m glad that it worked up quickly for you so that it wasn’t much of a distraction! 😉
