When it rains, make quilts! I had a whole week off work and had planned to get a lot of yard/garden work done but Mother Nature decided we needed rain all week long. Soooo...... I did what any good quilter would do! I finished 2 UFOs, completed a top I had begun 2 weeks ago and started another.

Those quilts make me feel happy when I look at them. Great rainy week projects. I have placemats that I made out of the blue daisy fabric.

They are all beautiful-especially the fussy cut rose, but I have always love The Pokey Little Puppy! He's so cute.
