YAY, IT'S DONE!
Now that the other projects are done I finally got a chanceto finish this one for me! I’m not a “scrappy”person at heart but this one may have changed my mind. As noted in an earlier post, I used scrapsfrom remnants left from my late mom’s sewing projects. The fabrics are old and older and of different content: cotton, blends, poly, tightly woven, looselywoven, etc., but they all seem to play well together. I like that! I used the remnants to make memory quilts for my three sisters and fournieces, and this quilt uses the true scraps. Mom’s remnants are pretty much gone. The quilt is doubly special because I pieced the top using my mom’s 1935Singer 15-90, the very machine on which I learned to sew. <o

Thanks, again, Judy for a great pattern and the fun timewith some awesome ladies. I’m lookingforward to the next ride, whenever to get around to it.
