She's at it Again

This gal is a blanket guru. She has all kinds, soft ones, fuzzy ones, quilted ones, fleece ones. They are tucked in every nook and cranny of her bedroom. Her college dorm room is decorated in the homespun quilt look.

So I was not surprised when she wanted to take her money she earned while on break during her short summer in trade for fabric for a new quilt. I shouldn't be surprised that she is on the sewing machine for hours on end, nipping and tucking and piecing away.

Here is a quick preview and we'll have to share the finished product once it's completed.

It's going to be a rag quilt with all the seams on the outside, cut and frayed for a tattered ragged look. Sounds pretty comfy to me!

It's cool that she loves doing such a neat, old-school thing.

We need more just like her!

Good for her! How great to have that skill. A rag quilt is the one and only quilt I have made. Hard to believe when I have two sisters who are quilt queens. Oh, well. Someday I might attempt something again.
