    Default Options quilt along
    I had been following along with Aby Dolinger's block of the month for 2021, which is called "Options," because it involves making variations of 8" blocks. I found myself needing a thank you quilt for a very helpful friend of my brother's after my brother had surgery. So I put the blocks I've been making all year together in a quilt for him, setting the blocks on point. Here's a picture of "Ken's Quilt".

    It’s a beautiful quilt. Love all the grays and love the border idea with the white and gray “bars.”
