The Latest Quilt


I figured since tracking said 'delivered' I could post my latest project. This is for my nephew to be. . . . fun to sew flannel for someone who will use it to keep warm. . . . still running the AC nice and strong these days. . . but this post is not about the weather. I used this precious panel and did "rag" squares all around. I think it turned out pretty cute. If any of you out there ever do a rag quilt you NEED the corresponding scissors OMG!! they are AMAZING!!! they have a built in spring so you don't get sores on your thumbs. I basically 'snipped' the whole quilt in one sitting!! This is an accomplishment even if it's only a crib size. I think fiscars even has a 'knock-off' so they're not as expensive but I don't care I'd pay double what I paid to use them!!

Way cute quilt! I took pics of mine to show you as you requested, but I need to find the cord to put them on the computer before I can send them to you! I'm such a slacker I know. But be forewarned...my quilt doesn't look nearly as cute as yours. Probably because you're better than me!
