You would be surprised what you can carefully pack into a gallon bag, which can also be folded up and used later by the recipients. It's just a little something to try to help with the weather getting colder.

Zozee I agree lol. It's not that my work is perfect I just want it to be! Sometimes I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to quilting. Believe me I don't think anyone will be disappointed with
your work.
your work.

The bottom of the lavender blocks were cut off in the photo, I assure you there is 1/4" of the white fabric under the points. I tried several times to get a decent picture but it wasn't meant to be today! Maybe in the future I will just post one photo of each of the sets as they are completed..

Been debating on whether to participate, I see the decision is to make WOW with spring floral with the pattern from Quilters Cache. I have only a few questions, sorry, I like to work with either non washed fabric, or if it has to be washed ( didn't see it in the rules) is it okay to use starch to stiffen my fabric. I just feel it helps with precision. Also I have a dog and though he is rarely in my "Toy Room" I may carry a hair on me while sewing. So before I commit, is the starch and the fact I have a dog okay?
