    Exclamation "Madhouse" - 864 pcs!!

    Here are pics of my next 2 quilt tops. The first one is "Madhouse," an ISpy with approx. 864 pieces! A friend gave me the 1.5" x wof strips and I cut them all up for this quilt. There are 36 blocks that I made into a big 9P. The blocks were done in March and I completed the borders this weekend. Only about 10% of strips were left over! It's 62x62. Lots of closeups!

    The 2nd quilt top I also finished this weekend. A friend gave me the top and I added all the borders, backing and I am still FMQ'ing this one. They will both go to KidzQuiltz.org in Co. Here's the link if interested.

    Some kids will love these and keep them entertained awhile! I sure had fun making them! Thanks for looking!

    Looks good and like a madhouse but will be appreciated by the recipient. I really do think it's cute though!

    Madhouse seems like the right name for quilt #1. But it's a fun quilt. I'm sure both will be loved and appreceiated.
