BUT I love yours and it makes me wish I had the time and patience to make one! I get too antzy even when completing the hotpads. I am ready to move on to something new before I even get done with one!

But your pansies are fantastic! I love how you did the squares in the corners! If I am going to ever get one I will probably have to buy one from someone!!
Oh well I can dream about making one!

Can't wait to see the next one!


Thanks Rhonda! I have to say, I am impatient to finish things as well, but this was the quickest quilt I've pieced! And it stays interesting as you take each little stack of triangles and see what K they make! Go on, I dare you!

Maybe I will some day when I have more time. I have too many irons in the fire right now. And with school being out soon I will have grandkids more than 2 days a week through the summer. My youngest son and his family are moving soon and I will have the twins for acouple of days as well as my usual schedule of kids every weekend. My daughter will need me to take Zach(he's autistic) more through the summer and I have several deadlines for quilting things that have to be done. Summer is the busiest time in Kalona and I have to get back to getting that caught up!! I try to take something up every two to three weeks but it has been 4 to 6 lately. With summer that has to go back to 2 -3 weeks or she will have empty shelves.

The first week in June I have kids 5 days out of 7. Due to Scout camp and Sara's fil has to be out of the office so she has to fill in (can't have the kids in there all day) and my usual weekends with kids - 6 grandkids
under the age of 10 to fit in!

This is just going to have to go on my whenever I get time list! But I may try a smaller version. Hmmm I'm thinking maybe tote bag? Not as impressive but I wonder....... What I could do with this idea........
