As to the report, it's simple today - Nothing in, nothing out. Numbers on the sidebar. But that doesn't mean I wasn't sewing. I'm been working on a rag quilt for St. Anne's. I can count all the flannel I worked with because it came from the groups stash, not mine - LOL. I took all the odd squares we had in the various bags and combined them to make enough blocks in order to piece it. Comes out about 37" square. It took me best part of a week because of all the other stuff life was throwing at me. And the group meets this coming Thursday, so I had to fit it in to any free moments I had. I just finished it .
Here's the back - I used red thread to quilt the squares and edge it. |
The front is more hodge-podge than the back but I tried to group them. |
Loving the pinks and greens.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Billie - those were my favorites in the quilt too - and it's such soft flannel.
ReplyDeletemy daughter in law has asked me to make a rag quilt. i want to get it done by her birthday which is in august.
ReplyDeleteLove the flannel rag quilts. So cozy. My first grandson loved his. We actually had to extend it when he out grew it. He's in 6th grade now and still sleeps with it although he hasn't asked to extend it again. Love the pinks and greens.
ReplyDeleteFlannel quilts are great - and what I love about this one is that you can have a sweet, soft side or you can flip it for a bolder side!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift that will make.
