...to bring you a quilt. Actually so far it's just a quilt top.
Every year Houston hosts a giant International Quilt Festival at the end of October/first of November. I almost always attend. My mom is the quilter in the family and she sometimes comes to visit me and attend the festival. This year she came! I am always inspired to quilt when I go the festival. This year I bought two "charm packs" of 5" squares of fabric by Moda. Since my mom was here and I could use her expertise in making the quilt top, I did. Look what we put together last Saturday!
It's fairly small. When finished it will be the kind of quilt you'd throw over yourself on a chilly day as you sit on the couch.Today I wanted to go to the quilt store to buy fabric for the borders of the quilt. It wasn't open Sunday though. I hope to make it there next Saturday. Then I can take the quilt home over Thanksgiving and, with my mom's help, finish the top then.
