    We had a family reunion over the 4th of July weekend, and I had seen comments about quilts at family reunions, so I had these 2 very vibrant striped fabrics, and decided to just make some HST with them. It was fast to whip together, and back it with a piece of white fleece, in case the winner got overwhelmed with the bold front. I have 6 brothers and 2 sisters with the oldest at 73 and youngest at 56 and all were there except the one sister, so I was really happy when one of my brother's name was drawn out of the bucket.

    I did do a label for it, but forgot to take a picture of it. It just said, Congratulations, you have just won this lap robe at the ??? family reunion, July 4, 2011, Made by Spartan Quilter
