Leftovers

 A while back I made quilt a few of those gingham/Buffalo Plaid quilts. and I had some leftovers. 

since I am clearing my piles, it was time to address these. I might should have addressed them to one of you - but! I put them up on the design wall and played around with them

This is what I came up with: 


And then I stared at it for a long time. And then I decided that I liked the way the lights and darks played with each other. and Then I decided - Just put it together. 

And so I did. Its not very big, but Our local Hospice likes bright smaller lap quilts - I think that this will probably go there when its quilted ( and bound)

Quilting has bee so fun - and much cooler that outside - I think I showed you the tractor on my last baby quilt.



And then this one - I have been thinking of what I want to quilt on the Dinosaur quilt I made my son - so I tested this one on a client quilt. I think it kind of looks like a Dinosaur jungle...


We will see what he thinks!!

I feel like  a Quilter on a mission to finish up these things that I have piled, but while I am working on them - I am finding that I am thinking of the *next* project.

Its a problem 😄😄😎

    And it's a problem we all have I think!! This week I am trying to get several items off the 'To be quilted' pile and thinking what can I piece next when I take a break from that! I like what you did with these leftover blocks.

    Laughing because we quilters just can't dispose of any little scrap! Love what you did! The quilting designs are fun, too. I am just entering that realm as I finally computerized my long arm within the last year.

    Those leftovers made a pretty quilt! Someone will love it and find comfort in it. :) How are your big baby pups doing?

    Way to go for reducing the piles and increasing the finishes! Isn't it amazing how some leftovers turn into a piece of sunshine? You've done with those gingham/Buffalo Plaid leftovers!

    I really like how the plaid quilt leftovers came together; that would be a great hospice quilt. And I figure it's a good sign that we're always thinking about the next project. We're not done yet, haha!
