A friend of mine has been bugging me to start a blog, so here it is (finally!) I do a bit of quilting, and some card-making, so that's mostly what you'll see here.
You're very lucky, because today, I'm actually going to be posting 2 quilts I just finished. A quilting friend heard about the need for quilts for girls in an African orphanage, and decided to take on the challenge of providing a quilt for each of the 33 girls! Seeing as I have lots of bits and pieces of fabric, I decided to give her a hand, and make a few for her - so here they are:
The first one is called a disappearing nine-patch, and the second one is a variation of Easy Street. Both were made from scraps, and I've found that I really enjoyed the process!
