Unconventional and Unexpected QAL




When I saw this quilt in Roderick Kiracofe's book, it made me think of my stacks of solids that have been piling up for years.  Why not use them all in one quilt?  It probably won't make a dent, but it should be fun to see them all together on the wall.  

 

This palette will be quite a departure from my usual subdued color combinations. 

Wish me luck!

Happy Ending


The bow ties from Barb Vedder’s swap have finally turned into my favorite nap quilt.  It took some time to add those uneven 9-patches to stretch it out, but it was worth doing.  I have made countless nap quilts in the past, but this one suits me best.  It covers my feet (I am 5’9” and wear size 11s)
