Affirmation really motivates!

 

Woow!  Great week and 

another great one coming up! 

Open house for one of the off spring.

 They now have a  beautiful and 

modern home. There is even a 

loft sewing area! Yes I managed to 

convert my DIL and now she is a quilter.

Reconnecting with extended family, 

and I have grad quilt to make!

Since next year projects included working 

on my block bank, a grad quilt started 

coming  together this week using these piles 

of string squares!


A quick count of clips showed the 
distribution. My block bank has
the waiting squares clipped into 
sets of 10 so counting is always quick.



 
The inventory lead to the pattern and Voila!


The reverse L shape for this 
quilt was born.  


It looks a bit 
busy deconstructed. Once sewn 
it should come together nicely. 


The outside blue row was a late 
addition for size and a lone 
grey needs to be replaced with a 
black block, but it is ready for joining!

After hearing my nephew say, 
" I miss your quilts!" I have lots of motivation!
If that wasn't enough, I got a 
beautiful picture of a wedding quilt.
