I SPY QUILT IN PROGRESS


I started working on an I Spy Quilt for my granddaughter.
Here's the beginning of this fun quilt.
I'm hoping to have it finished by Easter.


These blocks are waiting to be pressed and trimmed
to 5.5" square.  All together I have more than 80 blocks.
And all the fabrics came from my stash.  Although,
some fat quarters were purchased over the past
3 years in anticipation of making this I Spy Quilt.


And I now have a "design wall".  It's just batting tacked 
to a sliding closet door, but it does the trick.

Enjoy this beautiful day,
it's bitter cold here in southern PA
but the sun is shining :)

Will you be my Valentine.......


A few years ago I purchased a kit to make a quilt 
featuring this adorable vintage look 
novelty Valentine fabric.  
I believe the fabric is by PamKitty.


I used the same basic pattern and instructions but instead of
one quilt I made 4.  One for me and each of my daughters
plus a tiny little gem for my granddaughter.


I added fabric from my stash
to finish the backs and binding.
 

A fun little project to share my love
with my family.



Happy February!
