The scrappy LOVE jelly roll quilt is finished.
The aqua colored sheet from Target worked like a charm - puckered up nicely after washing
just like the fabric on the top. The most challenging part? Trying to get a good picture of
the finished product. This was the best we could do.
A little skiwampus, but I love those feet! Can you tell we were on our way to a soccer
game? In fact, the quilt went with us. It was bound, washed and broken in all on the same
day. 3 games this week and 4 more next week. That doesn't include all of the practices.
We are insane.
And (changing subjects here), I've learned something about myself this week:

It turned out beautiful. I went to Target yesterday and bought a couple of clearance sheets and I'm glad to hear they worked out fine.

i'm so glad i didn't look at this quilt again before i started mine! i would have been depressed. I needed to make one quick and so i cut everything bigger. I do love it, but oh i love yours soooo much more. i think i'll make the next one for ME and use the smaller strips.
just gorgeous!!
Beautiful!
Found you thru Sunny Morning Farm Blog. And I love this quilt. About the cookies - at least it was the oven timer and not the fire alarm. Just give them extra milk to wash them down with.
