All quilted and bound. DD#1 came and picked it up today. Well...she brought GG AnnaMarie to stay for a few hours while she went to work. AnnaMarie worked on her hand sewing while I machine quilted the larger pink quilt. She will be 8 this August. That is how old I was when I began sewing.
I love the backs of quilts. It makes it easier to see the quilting lines.
I just joined a Yahoo group who exchange 1 1/2" squares. Here are mine all ready for mailing. There are 50 different fabrics in each of the 25 stacks. You know I had to banish the kitties while I was doing this task. I could see them running through the stacks and messing them up. And MaggieMae (who I also call Magnet) would have had the squares clinging all over her....thus the name Magnet. My kitties hate having a door shut. "Do not deny me this room." I could hear them complaining.

What will you be doing with your 1 1/2" squares?
What a neat swap idea! And of course that is the luckiest dog in the world. My dogs have to make do with old scraps of fleece. I love that quilt and the quilt pattern is just wonderful.
Wow! How clean and crisp your colors are - it's a lovely graphic quilt. And the pets are going to get it?
Hey, aren't you the gal who did that gorgeous string project of Bonnies? You can use those same strings for your next K quilt. 8-))
I sent my squares in last week. I can't wait to recieve yours. I don't have a project in mind for mine either.
Love that quilt and will be sourcing out that ruler!
I really enjoyed seeing these photos. Your finished quilt is beautiful and the photo of packages of charms all neatly organized is so cool!
I would like to join the postage stamp swap - how do I sign up? I so love 1 1/2" squares! I am just finishing MAD CITY MAMA!
Thanks!
