Scrappy Plaid-ish Quilt

Well, after ironing and cutting a pile of scraps,

the blocks are made and the quilt is on my wall.

Well, all but the bottom two rows!

This is a large quilt!

This quilt pattern is "Plaid-ish" and can be found here for free.

I don't use a lot of dark fabrics in my quilting,

so the contrast between the darks and mediums

isn't as good as I would like it to be. 

The "Plaid-ish" look still comes through, though.

I have enough scraps cut to start another one and may

either need to find lighter mediums or darker darks.

The rows will be sewn together soon!

My older daughter and I have been participating in 

art classes with the ARC group in our county.

We've had fun doing things that we would not ordinarily do.

My daughter is especially enjoying these classes.

The teacher is excellent and has found things for all

of us to do that look good no matter who is making them.

This week we made mosaics.

E did a great job on her Christmas tree!

My snowman needs a hat.

I decided, while this was fun,

I'll stick to quilting!

The Sea Life ornaments are finished!

Mr. Turtle was the last one to be made

and he is so cute!

Here are all six from this particular Bucilla kit.

I need to add the hangers and they will be ready to hang.

Happy Quilting and Creating!
