Our quilt guild traded lonely orphan blocks to make quilts for displaced pets. All of the blocks were lovely, but this one made with batiks caught my eye. Plus, I knew I had plenty of batik scraps to make this block grow.
One finished pet quilt. I used strips to make a wonky log cabin. It measures about 25" square. We decided a quilt with no binding might work better since it may need to be washed frequently. I used the pillowcase binding method and it worked like a charm. I stuck with quilting in the ditch to keep the layers together.
Oh Bones, you already have a quilt. I had to dump him off, silly dog. A quick wash and dry and this little quilt will be on its way to comfort a pet.
I've made one of these
gathered round baskets before. I use it as a thread catcher. This morning I made one to match Red, my sewing machine.
Look who popped out to say hi. I'm proud to report I didn't scream. Have a great Saturday!
I had one that was about 4' slither across my back patio this morning. I didn't scream either!! But my daughter kinda squealed when she saw him (all snakes are men!) slither across the front walkway this afternoon.
