Hi Quilters! My elderly aunt gave me these 'squares'. Bless her heart, none were even, must less square. So I re-cut and put them together. I thought it really needed something else. Last week, on an embroidery site, this little lamb was offered. I thought that was exactly what I needed to finish my blanket. I call it a blanket because even though I quilted it, I didn't use any batting and I used Minky on the back. My grandson has his 'blankie' he drags around, and drag a little one would have to do, as this is surprisingly heavy! Anyway I ripped the fourth row out and inserted this gray strip. I free motion quilted the strip and outlined the appliques.I crosshatched the squares, every other row. I bound it with the cotton, as I barely had enough Minky to back it. Thank goodness I have an assortment of supplies!...and people thought I was hoarding...I was getting prepared!-lol
