I like this topic. I have been having fun making the jelly roll quilts, and scrappy quilts just to play and be non-thinking. Several people have asked me what I am going to do with them. They thought it strange that I didn't have a specific plan for them. This is the first time in my quilting life that I have made something without a definite plan for it. I like just looking at them and admiring my work. I am new at long arm quilting so they have been my practice "canvasses". Maybe someday they will have a home other than mine, but right now they are MINE.
