Shannon!! You've moved too fast for me. You're the one with a full-time job AND child-care demands. I'm the one with....well, nothing on my agenda day after day after day. So why are you so far ahead of me?? (Rhetorical question.) I'll start today!
These are so pretty. And tonight I finally started cutting. Now I'll do some sewing and at least I can say I started. Should we add sashing between the rows? Tomorrow I'll post a picture showing what I mean.
Cutting our scraps into 4" blocks and sewing them together, and tying them. For donation to a fire dept for kids who are displaced after a fire.
Shannon's ideas for next projects (in quotes); with Pam's comments.
"A quilt of long, strips of fabric sewn together." A log cabin maybe?
"One of those crazy (but not) quilt blocks. We could design one together" next time we have lunch. "And make the blocks the same size" 12 inches maybe? "and with the same main fabric" maybe that bright red/magenta floral fabric? "and then we could switch off." If we each do 30 blocks we would end up with a 60 x 72 inch quilt.
"Needles-n-Pins, a quilt store in Frederick, accepts quilts for kids. They donate them to the local fire dept. for when kids are the victims of fires and lose their homes." Pam will do more research.
"Cutting our scraps into 4" blocks and sewing them together, and tying them and then we could either donate them to" Needles-n-Pins!! see above.
