quilt action

[sigerson]

I have discovered that I am one quilt square short for the New Year's compilation. (Or three squares over, but I prefer the additive rather than subtractive solution.) I must think of a cool square to add. A painted or appliqued design might be nice...perhaps a sheep, perhaps a beastie?

I must ponder. And raid my fabric collection. Now we'll have 24 squares, and it'll be a respectable twin-size quilt!

And then I can start on the graduation projects for my sibling and my cousin. Sib is getting a Kaleidoscope pattern in blues, blacks, and silvers--House Ravenclaw, in fact. It'll be very dark and subtle. Cousin is getting a Hunter's Star pattern (like the black/beige/red one I own) in bright greens, teals, pinks and purples. Vivid, but not eye-strain. I hope.

And I have material for a baby-sized quilt. I'm going to use my sushi print and ignore the lack of babies in anyone's life. It'll be a nice...um...tiny tablecloth?

excellent news! (about the almost ready) -- I like the tablecloth notion. For a while I've thought about maybe making a crazy quilt out of all my old duvet covers and pants with holes, and such, but I didn't know what I'd do with it once made. Tablecloth! of course! Or give it to the Binky Patrol, a very worthy organization....
