I finished up the scrap quilt I was working on.
It is made with fabric scraps and uses blocks from the 2012 Block of the Month Class on Craftsy.
Another view:
I backed it with flannel so it it quite cozy. We sure don’t need it here in Florida this winter. Guess what the grandkids are getting for Christmas this year.
If the grands don't want it, you can send it to me! It's lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank-you. One never knows with grandchildren...except that they will be brutally honest!
DeleteOlga, I love it-- you are sooooo talented!
ReplyDeletePeace,
Muff
It is not so much talent as dogged determination. (I should save that for my own alphabet blog.) Thank-you!
DeleteI bet the grands will love it! My Mom made a quilt for Amara that she just cherishes -- not because it is an awesome quilt but because Great Grandma made it for her. Yours is beautiful and I am willing to fight Susan for it!
ReplyDeleteAmara is a sweetheart. I am still in the practice stage of quilting, but i really have been enjoying my new hobby.
DeleteThat is beautiful. I'm sure those grands will think of their grandma every time they snuggle with their warm quilt.
ReplyDeleteWell, between Mike and myself, we have eight grand kids. I think I am going to have to spread out the homemade gift giving a bit.
DeleteI love this quilt. It has so much interest to it. I love the colors and the patterns. Nice job, Olga.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sally. It is not quite a crazy quilt, but I did use a lot of scrap material. I keep telling myself I am learning from my mistakes. What I learned: My next quilt will be much simpler.
DeleteI'm in awe of people who can sew and make lovely, serviceable items. Giving a gift of your handiwork is very special. A friend gave me a crochet afghan, and I think of her whenever I see it.
ReplyDeleteI was given a quilt at my retirement party. Colleagues had each contributed a square and our secretary put it together. I do treasure it.
DeleteLike Barb, I don't quilt but love seeing what others do. Lovely job. Quilts to me always seem to have heirloom stamped all over them.
ReplyDeleteThis is kind of a quirky one, but I have it in mind for a quirky grand child.
DeleteWhat a large amount of skilled work. I started quilting once a long time ago, but got too lazy. Lucky grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteThis one was a lot of work because the blocks were all different and I had to learn each one. I enjoy it though.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Quilt! I envy your talent! The grand kids are very lucky!
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever. I think it is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteSuper work! Now let's hope the kids don't read your blog or the surprise will be ruined.
