Simple & Done, Number 2

OK, not only do I have a closet that is talking to me, but there is a pile of “stuff” on the floor in front of the closet. I decided to see if I could make any progress on finding a “home” for this stuff. The first two items were easy, they went into the waste basket, item number 3 was a lonely quilt block.

I would like to make a complete quilt using this block (if you know me, you know I love 9 patch blocks), I also know it will never get done, so lets make another doll quilt. It is so easy to add a single border to a block, put flannel on the back, add a little machine quilting and it turns into Simple & Done, Number Two.

No, it doesn't rhyme any more but that's OK.

2010 Charity Quilt 1

On Wednesday, I opened a closet door and had a pile of fabric hit me on the head! Well, it was only 11 little samples of flannel but it was enough for me to understand that my closet was talking to me and saying, "Clean me, clean me, clean me!"

Well, that was a little too radical, and time consuming, but I did decide to make my first charity doll quilt for 2010. It's called, Simple and Done, Number One.
