Design Wall Monday

A new project today! This block is called Hot Cross Buns and it's from Bonnie Hunter's Addicted to Scraps column in the Nov/Dec 2010 issue of Quiltmaker. I am thinking of navy sashing with red or yellow cornerstones.

Here is the wedding quilt finished. I gave it to the bride last Saturday and she was thrilled. Details are included on the Finshed Quilts page.

Actually it's design floor Monday. This quilt is way too big to fit on the wall. I am almost finished with the center and then I'll decide what fabric to use for the borders. I have two choices, a brown print or a green print.

I haven't posted anything in six weeks because I haven't really worked on anything during that time. Life has been getting in the way. I did start a new project. This will be a wedding gift for a good friend of my daughter. She's getting married in April so I better get going. The pattern is called Beach Party and it's from the second Nickel Quilt book. I changed the four-patch blocks so they would form Xs instead of diagonal stripes.

I also made a trip to the Valley of the Moon Children's Home last Friday and dropped off 29 quilts, pictured below. I dropped off 6 quilts at the San Antonio Childcare Center earlier in the week, not pictured.
