    As a wonderfully wise quilter on the doll quilt swap said, what you make is who you are at the moment. I am usually very undisciplined in my quilting. Those who are kind call it "arty" or creative. In the aftermath of evacuating for Hurricane Irene, I decided to declutter and simplify my life. I have a long way to go, but my decision to make this little quilt for the September swap does reflect that sentiment. Suffice it to say, my seam ripper got a good work out and I had to look at binding tutorials more than once. But ... ta dah ... it's done! And it was fun.

    Krystna, it is wonderful! I have some of those same fabrics, being a black and white junkie!

    You did a great job, your partner will love it.
