Pandemic quilting: Neons

04 Dec 2024 1 1 9
Last new quilt for 2024; eighth total, and largest I've ever made. I know, it needs ironing. :) The neon squares were from Trash for Teaching, a warehouse of post-manufacturing waste (not there anymore, sadly). They were already cut into squares of this size, so I accepted that gift. The print fabric and rickrack are probably from my grandmother's 70s/80s stash. I'm thinking of it as a blank-slate quilt--the giftee can add to it, write on it, draw on it, etc. It's also bright and different enough to be easy to find on the beach.

Pandemic quilting: Christmas and Dogs

This is my seventh-ever quilt, smallish, basic, but I think I'm still improving with each one so I'll keep going for now. They will all be gifts. All the fabric here was free from a neighbor who was giving away her quilting scraps on Buy Nothing. The prints are mostly are Christmas red and white, and dogs.
