Cyndi, you've already made quilts? We wanna see!!!!
Yup. I had 11 basket blocks from a previous swap that I mixed with a bunch of the blocks from this swap, and made a super-king-sized quilt for my 88-year-old mother. She'd been using a torn-up mattress cover as a "summer blanket" and I threw it away and promised her a quilt. I tried to get it done by Mother's Day, but that just snuck up on me. So I just got it back from the longarm quilter's today, sewed the binding on this evening (the first part), and will be doing the hand-stitching the next few nights. THEN, I'll go to my neighbor's 2-story house and hang it from her balcony for some pics. You can bet I'll be posting a pic here! I've made dozens and dozens of mini quilts, and a few lap-sized quilts and throws, but this is my first large quilt.
