    Default I call this one Country Quilt. Fun (easy!).

    Funny background--first I tossed some borders around four panels and left them. Weeks later I thought about a wall hanging. Nah. Made two more for a stoller quilt. Nah. Made three more for a baby quilt. Nah. How about 12 for a crib quilt? Nope. At last--how about a lap quilt for me? Yup! I then decided the green I was using was too light for the gold sashing...fixed that. Then I wanted the floral for the outer border. All gone. How about the green? Gone, too. Sigh. I dug around in stash and found another green--close enough. Decided on cornerstones with another fabric from the Farmville series...so it matches--kind of. Finished this at 10 AM. This will be sent to feline for her magical touch.

    I'm off this week and have a lot of quilting to do. Need to bind the ones feline quilted for me and make three Talk-Abouts for the grandbaby on its way!

    Those are Moda Marble Swirls--my favorite fabrics for Talk-About Books. I'll attach some photos... I've sold over 20 now! Note: photos are of random pages.
