if i had tried to use a different block set and layout for each quilt, i'd probably still be working on them. LOL

i saved time by not measuring and calculating carefully to use only the precise amount of fabric needed.
i just grabbed fabrics that went together and that i had lots of.

i also employed strip and chain piecing.
needless to say, i have a nice little pile of leftover pieces. LOL
i don't have a clue yet what i'll do with them, but pillows or pillow cases are not out of the question.
these kids do have birthdays, after all. LOL
