First quilt top from my stash done. Started January 1st. Finished January 2nd. It will be a "watching tv on the sofa" quilt for my newly retired husband. Two of the fabrics are very special to me. In 2012 we lost our home to Superstorm Sandy and moved into an apartment with essentially nothing. That was soon taken care of with generous donations from QB members - including a gorgeous sewing machine.. My husband was working double shifts and often had to sleep during the day. I whipped up some curtains from quilting cotton to block the light. Now, over four years later, we are in a new home. The curtains were laundered and recycled into this quilt. The colors are much more vibrant and rich than my early morning photo. I guess I'll move this onto the UFO thread when it's done - hopefully today!
