Needless to say, it was a really, really simple quilt--basically 5-inch squares. The other one was a "pillow" quilt I did for a little girl's room. There is probably a better name for them but there is no quilting involved. You make a bunch of little"pillows," all individually stuffed with fiberfill and sew them together, then line it. I did that all on the serger just because it was faster and easier.
