Spring cleaning continues! In going through boxes & drawers in an effort to consolidate & purge I found this quilt that I had started a while back.
I love the blue colors and the way it went together!
I know that you can imagine how sad I was when I got it all laid out only to realize that I was one block short!!!
I seriously started this a couple of years ago so finding all the fabric again at the store was NOT going to happen.
Have I mentioned I am a pack rat when it comes to fabric? I have a hard time getting rid of fabric or books. Those are my weaknesses!
So I dug through my scraps and was thrilled that I had all the fabric I needed except for the basic blue that goes in the center of each block. ARG!
After a trip to the local Jo Ann’s Fabric Store I found a solid blue that is so close that no one will ever know.
Now I just need a few hours to put that final block together. Okay who am I kidding? Maybe a few minutes of time here and there will make it happen over the next few weeks!
It's beautiful. My grandmother used to make piece quilts as well as quilt them and my mother also does. Somehow I didn't inherit the talent. I just don't have enough patience. But I do have an appreciation for quilts and the love and work that go into them.
ReplyDeleteLovely! The log cabin block is one of my favorites:)
