    Guess what? I finally finished the baby quilt wallhanging for the daughter of my friend of 35years and they received it before the birth of the twins!

    I put 2 patterns together for this... Heart blocks and Disappearing Nine Patch and added a sweet poem on top. I often did what it said.

    With trying to downsize all my possessions to prepare for packing due to bankruptcy/home loss, it took me all summer to get this done. It was a fun project and I'm happy with how it turned out. This is fun to have people to show it to who really know how much effort it takes to make a quilt. The backing fabric was provided by a sweet member here. I was so grateful because I didn't have enough for a whole back and would not have been happy with giving a gift that was pieced from my remnants.

    Thanks for looking,
