I’ve actually made some progress on Mom’s lap quilt. I bought the fabric over a month ago and cut out the squares a few weeks after that. The little square stacks were sitting on my desk looking sad and neglected and today, I finally started sewing them together.
My desk as the work began unfolding:
messy desk
My progress thus far:
8 of 12 rows done!
Why did I stop, you ask? I had to take another hiatus for a legitimate reason:
Gutermann 22 is empty!
This is going to be a small quilt for Rich’s chair and will be Mom’s Mother’s Day present. The finished dimensions should be 48″ X 60″. I just measured a blanket that I have in my living room for my dimensions.
I’m really enjoying this quilt top so far. I’ve even discussed with Brendan how it matches our house better than my mom’s . . .
