I should not buy any material. I did not buy any material in January. Yes, in Dec I looked at Walmart and did see any material I wanted. Did not have much time and I did see the price of batts had jump up from few months back. Dec I did not buy any material.
This has been a COLD, snowy, nasty winter. I managed a walk till Mid-Dec when it really started in. You would think I would get getting sewing done. Just got over the flu from in Dec. I using the rec center treadmill for walking.
I have started on a quilt top. Another 16 patch. Muli colored blocks no two a like. That was scraps I had to get used up. I having hard time getting these blocks squared and a white border around each and then will set with blue. I think I have the hang of how to do it now. Why this one is taking so long.
When you are in the gas/oil fields (to be by son) and 90 miles to the big city you do rather stock up. But I really need to get a lot of material used up in my life time what ever that will be that I can see to sew. I have more material down home to get moved up here. Some of that took me years to round up that material and get colors I would need. Be my own designs but really I am new to anything but sewing square block quilts. I have more to learn how.
And money wise now I will not have money to buy much material now anyway.
Some one heere said they were planing on some quilts for the nursing home. Bed quilts? Or lap quilts? If bed quilts can they be justbe blocks sewed together and lined and backed? What type acceptable?
