May finish
I tried to get this finished for April but between physical issues & having grands here it didn't happen. But it worked out well because I changed my plan. The patchwork was from a lap quilt I made back in 1970 when I was 15yr & recovering from surgery. It was tied & so easy to take apart. My plan was to leave it as a lap quilt & FMQ but in an email from FaveQuilts there were directions for a sewing machine cover that just tied on & was reversible. I knew it was right for my patchwork!
The other scrappy side is made from scraps left over from Craftsy BOM 2012.
The neat thing is when I look at the patchwork I can recall clothes I had made from the fabrics. I started making my clothes when I was 12 so that's when my addiction to fabric really started-LOL.
I may make another cover with the other half I have left from the patchwork.
