I haven’t been posting much, but finally have the time to get a little done as my little guy is engrossed in the final episodes of the Clone Wars. I’ve going through all my pictures and trying to share some of the things I’ve actually completed this spring.

Here’s the Story Quilt I had been working on for some time. I finally finished in March.

Short Story Quilt

The 49 squares for my next quilt are all made. I’m using two charm packs of Liz Scott’s Sugar Pop! and Kona Cotton in Snow. The pattern for this quilt is called Short Story and it is from Carrie Nelson’s Schnibbles Times Two: Quilts from 5″ or 10″ Squares. This is only my 2nd official quilt and the first one I did contained no solids. I liked the way it turned out, but it was very busy and there was nowhere to rest your eyes. So, using solids to offset my love of color is a new approach. I’ll get more pictures up once I sew the squares together and start adding the sashing and border.
