    Okay, work asked me to do a quilt. You guys know I have only done 2 wall hangings so far. I had started on a table runner last week, but that had to be laid aside for this....

    They wanted a pink quilt for the Susan G Komen foundation in 2 weeks!! YIKES....well, I bought the WonderCut ruler a few weeks back and here was my chance to see if it is as great as the site and instructor said.

    I did the whole top (about 52 * 52) in about 12 hours total on Sat and Sun. I basted it tonight with the saftey pins and will quilt it the rest of this week and hopefully bind it this weekend. I think I may acutally make the 2 week deadline.

    We are going to sell raffle tickets for the charity, our walk is in Sept here in SC. The whole quilt is in Half Square Triangles and all are made in a scrappy kind of way about 10 fabrics used thru out. Backing will be the same as the border strips which actually have the pink ribbons on it.

    Here it goes....quilt #3!!!
