My quilt (or another post for my mom)


I bought some linen a while back to make a new table cloth, placemats, and napkins. I had some left-overs so I decided to make a quilt top. Since I don't have a comforter, I made it large enough for my bed and machine stitched the whole thing. Luckily, Kelli was gone for 2 weeks so I had time to assemble the quilt on our floor while she was in Utah. I also ended up with lightweight batting as my old singer has no walking foot. Anyway, even though there's mistakes a plenty on this quilt, it works for now and is warm.

You are a great quilt/blanket maker. I should know, we still have some of your work being well used around here!

Looks great. Strips & blocks? How did you figure it out? Perhaps you were inspired by great grandma Buhler & my mom's inventive & frugal use of surplus fabric. Where are the flamingos?
