A Quilt From the Past

I don't know how much I ever talked about this quilt top, I finished it like a year or so ago.  It it twin sized, one of the biggest I have ever made.  I made a twin for Rebecca and finished it.  This one has sat in a pile for a long time being neglected.  Not for lack of love, but you would think so.  It took 6 months after I made the top to make a back for it.  After all, I did not know how to make a back that big (yea I know, only a twin, but that is huge to me)  Then it sat again, because Tanya did not want to baste it.  Well I am glad to say Tanya has about given up on me quilting anything, because I have been  obsessed with granny squares and other 2 1/2 inch blocks (after all she has like 8 quilts basted ready for me to quilt). She sat down this last weekend and she basted the above quilt.  So I must change focus and quilt it.  Now how the heck should I quilt this one? Hum it better not be another 6 months figuring that out.  Any way it is on the table and next up to go in the machine.

I do not generally do directs adds in my blogs, but I want to take the time to thank those that follow my blog and support me in my blogging effort whether that be commenting on my blog or visiting the various sponsors by following the advertisement links found here on my blog.  A couple months back I was introduced to Craftsy and now love it.  Not only do I sell patterns though Craftsy, but I am a affiliate using there advertisements and get a little money off that.  In the past I have got revenue from new people signing up for Craftsy and for those that have signed up though my site got a percentage of money from classes they sign up for.  Starting today (or soon, I did not read the fine print very well) I will start getting money from the sell of supplies bought if you are referred though me.  If you have not signed up for Craftsy please do click on the link to the left and do so.  Buy a class or buy some quilting supplies and you can make me rich (OK maybe only in my dreams).  To entice you to visit if you do so look me up and comment on a pattern or project of mine on Craftsy and I will give you a free pattern of your choice.  If you make me rich, I can afford to have a new giveaway? (comment here also if you want a pattern and the name of it, on Craftsy just leave a nice comment about the item you chose to comment on).

I am off the sells soap box and yes still making various blocks while trying to avoid quilting all those quilts Tanya wants done.

Wait, I guess these 2 Tanya made, so its not just me making quilt blocks? What she plans for these I am not sure, but I am sure she is up to something.

Oh ya, some purple blocks I did.

Hum, I thought I was done cutting flannel.  Yes I found a few more bolts that were missed that first time!

 Last, if not least I have a pile of these?  Hum what the heck am I chopping piles of scraps for?  Oh ya, I did make a couple more granny squares while Tanya was looking the other way.
