Always fun to see someone really happy to get something made for them. One of my daughter's purchased the football fabric and asked if I would make some pillow cases for a friend of hers. I had a bit left over and besides two pillowcases I was able to make a table runner as well.
With all the holiday projects finished I found I just needed to work on something new. I dug through my bins and found some fat quarters and a book purchased some time ago and decided I needed to have something that I could work on between an ongoing appliqué project.Emily Taylor's book is full of easy quilts primarily made with fat quarters. I had a number of fat quarters and picked Attic Windows a pattern out of the book. Another pile of blocks prepped to sew together. Not sure how many I can get out of the fabric I have. Right now I have 18 and enough fabric I think to get another 18 more or so. Figure just to keep going until I run out of fabric and then figure out how to put them together and come up with throw quilt.

ReplyDeleteFootball themed pillowcases were the hit of Christmas here too. Houston Texans cases for one grandson, and KC Chiefs for the other 2 grandsons. Your new project looks really pretty. It feels a bit like spring.
