Idaho Square Dance Baby Quilt

Baby Sized Idaho Square Dance Quilt

Posted on

Posting about this, this morning, to motive myself to quilt this top today: It’s mostly sitting down and getting it done. It isn’t a big project.

Random and my Zipper Quilt Top

Posted on

I wanted to sew something bright and cheerful and straight forward. So I found a bright fat quarter  from my stash that I am almost certain I picked up from the guild’s scrap box. Then I searched my scraps and stash for the colours in the print on that fat quarter. I found pretty good…
