This is my center which I mailed to Julie the organizer in January.
Then in February I received somebody else's center to put the first border around. I had it on my design wall for quite a while ... trying to figure out what to do. But it kept reminding me of the boomer/boomerette blocks we had done for Block Lotto in 2013. And that is what I did. I hope the recipient likes it.
March
Got a center with the first border to make the second border. I really liked it and enjoyed working on it.
May
Got a center with two borders ready to layer, quilt and finish it. I did some machine quilting but also tried hand quilting with decorative thread. It was a challenge but fun too.
And when I came back from Europe there was a large envelope on top of that pile of mail. My little quilt. I love it. It is already hanging keeping last year's cotton robin company.
Great big THANK YOU to Liz in South Carolina, Nan in Oregon and Mary in Louisiana who all did a very nice job. And also to Julie for letting me play and working hard on this so we all have fun.
Looking forward to next year!
