I love it because I have such fond memories of the materials used. I am sure you feel the same. So here is my quilt top...thank you for allowing me to share it with you!

    Default simple scrappy

    Finished while watching the Olympics. It is 1.5" strips sewn together with sashing of 1.5" in a strong color. In this case, yellow. I made 3 identical ones because I had so many strips and wanted to use them up quickly. It's not a very quick quilt, but it is easy.

    No, no, NO!

    I made these tops in 2011 and finished up by hand the binding while watching the Olympics!!!! I actually attached the binding a couple of weeks before the Olympics and they were just sitting there, begging to be finished while sitting still....so I did it while the Olympics were on.
