Sometimes you just HAVE to start new projects! Not that you mean to break any of your rules or suggestions for yourself...well I think you know what I mean. I received, via email, this week an invitation to a very special person's surprise birthday party on Saturday. I can't attend she lives about 14 hours away. I really wanted to do something special for her, it is a "significant" birthday. I decided I would try to do a lap quilt. Now I knew today, Thursday, would be the last day I could possibly mail it and have it arrive before the party. I went Tuesday and found a quilt kit (don't typically like those....but), it is a Quilt with Style kit from JoAnn's. I used the brown fabric on the back. It was very easy to piece and I quilted it with an oak leaf panto in the green thread.
I washed it before mailing it....It is hard to make out the oak leaf pattern .
And, of course, a finished quilt is not complete without the folded quilt picture....I love them.
If you are looking for a quick and simple project...this a four-star project when it comes to quick and simple.
I have two more tops quilted, just have to bind them....wohoo! I am finally getting a few things done around here.
