Real world day job has taken the front seat and kept me busy.

In other news,
I came across the Granny Squares QAL last night...
It starts March 1st..
After seeing these blocks popping up all over the place I've decided I can't resist :)
I'll be using these..
These beauties are from Pink Chalk fabrics monthly club.
Two charm packs and coordinating fat eighths every month? yes please!
QAL starts Thursday! Are you participating too?
Woo hoo! What a great finish! I'm sure he's thrilled...the edges are indeed the best part :)

ReplyDeleteJust looked through your finished quilts,,this one is my favorite! I just love it! Especially those film strip edges - gives it your own spin on the plus quilt pattern. Nice backing flannel print, too.
