So I had my strips all layed out on the floor and was sewing them together two at a time, then in sets of two. I thought I was done, layed it out and thought " It's smaller than I thought". Now I had used up all the flannel for this and didn't want to go and match what I had, so I went up stairs to get something to drink and what do I see but Miss Izzy on the steps with my last three strips.

Flannel Rag Quilt
I was working on a Flannel Rag Quilt Tristen's 1st Birthday. They are really easy to do, but I was sewing this when it was 95 degrees out. Two layers of flannel and one of batting - what was I thinking.

A Christmas Wish

I am working on the first block of Gail Pan's free BOM, A Christmas Wish. I will be making this one for my guys and I have made a bunch of squares up so going forward I can spend the time on the embroidery.
For this one I am using material from Mom's stash. The white on white centers had a tag on it from Gibson's so I know it is several years old.

Come Over To My House

Forever Green Quilts is have a free Block of the Month. When finished it will be a wall hanging sized quilt 40" x 46".
The orange and yellow fabric are actually from a couple of shirts that I wore on the ranch. The white on white background fabric is from mom's stash. Since I will be keeping this one I wanted to use some of her fabric, and I need to start doing something with it. I just haven't decided if I want to do this one for my guys as well - which means I will be doing three of them at once???
