Project when you need a quick finish: Definitely a zig zag quilt using this tute

Least Favorites:

Project completed by you:  My first quilt… Everything about it was wrong! It was TWO layers of fleece and I had the nerve to add batting. It was tied in yellow yarn and was so ridiculous. No pics of that monster mess, darn!

Oh, and when I attempted the Petite Diaper Tote from the book One Yard Wonders, I made a bit of a mess. My stabilizer was way too strong and the bag is as rigid as a sailor on night watch at the panty factory.. I use it to carry bottles of wine instead – bingo!
