the quilt

it's cheating really, 'cause technically it isn't finished yet. i ran out of red binding tape and still have three sides to go. but i couldn't resist trying it out. of course i initially imagined my kids dressed like they were from a catalogue posing happily. instead we went a la naturale - daggy clothes covered in lunch!!!!

  4. you're all very kind... i like it for what it is - a kind of '50's inspired outdoors quilt... most of the squares aren't even and some of the fabric is puckered, but i like it 'cause it is somehing i made. even better - it is something i started AND finished!! ;-)
