baby quilt finish

 I have emptied a project box with this finish. I finished flannel #2 his week. It feels so good to move another UFo to done. I finished flannel #1 last week as part rainbow scrap challenge at so scrappy.

46x58- 7 yards of fabric

I found an old blog post about the pattern including a share it  of my copy of the pattern. It's a great pattern to use for a baby quilt and/or a donation quilt.

flannel quilts and a finish

My ufo # 2 and #3 for the rainbow scrap challenge at so scrappy was 2 pink flannel baby quilts. I didn't know, when I opened the box, if I had just collected the fabric, or, had it cut for what I needed. I saw labels on the fabric, so I was excited to learn it was already cut and ready to sew.

there are 2 quilts cut out in the box

I had all the letters I needed for the pattern -quilt #1

I arranged them on tray with all the letters showing

I have looked all over the internet for the pattern for this quilt to share. I can't find it anywhere. I see the diagram, but, the links are dead. My copy is a faded copy that came with the first flannel quilt kit that I bought years ago.

I like making it. It is easy to strip piece and subcut so that it looks complicated.

I had quilt # 2 pieced and ready to quilt January 2nd.

Great Weekend

I hope everyone had a great weekend - I did. The weather was great, and I played in our church little band performance for the first time ever.  I have never played a band instrument of any kind until 5 weeks ago. All of my children played in band throughout their school years. We have 7 State titles among them. I was so proud of them. My children played  a trumpet, 2 french horns, a flute, and a trombone. Sons 4 and 5 were already recruited for this little band, and they snagged me by saying I could play with my sons. Oh yes! please! The prospect was thrilling, until I realized I have never played anything. Yikes! I was offered the bells, umm that seemed easy enough, I can play the piano a bit. I practiced and practiced and Saturday was our big performance. I didn't bomb! Can you imagine? I didn't bomb it. wow. And there was all kinds of pride playing with my very talented sons, who were just amazing together. They had not played together, as there are 6 years between them. They grow up so fast.. I get all teary eyed as I think of all the amazing moments I had as a Mother watching and listening to them over the years. sigh...

I made progress on midnight flight flip and sew corners. I opted to make bonus triangles. When I am done ( in the not so distant future), I will have 576 bonus triangles in purple and blue. It takes 684 for Scrap Crystals by Bonnie Hunter, so  a mere 100 more and I will have another quilt in the making. I am using the new Bonus Buddy from Quiltville and I think it is working, the bonus triangles are coming out at 2 inches.

 After a bit of "what was I thinking", I was ready to tackle forest fancy quilt again. All I have to do are the fireflies, the angles are a bit challenging for me. Sew a little, rip a little, repeat. Eventually, I will end on a sew a little, and, poof, there will will be fireflies.

Slow stitch Sunday, I finished hand sewing the binding on the pink flannel baby quilt. And I have a finish.

I see all the wonderful pictures of quilts, on blogs, taken outside, with such lovely backgrounds, and all I get is dead leaves and wind. sigh...
This was a free pattern from somewhere. I can't see any information on the paper at all. I want to try and share it , notes and all. Hope I do it right.
