I'm starting to work on Jennifer's Fairies, a quilt for co-worker Jennifer who will retire on Thursday. Yes, this Thursday. I have a couple of cute fat quarters (fairies and butterflies) that I will cut into four and six equal parts, frame each with a narrow border, then apply wide strips to build into large blocks--9 in total. After that, it's a wide border. This quilt needs to be quick; nonetheless it will be pretty in yellow, pink and blue.
This will be the third retirement quilt I've made in the last month or so. Four people are retiring on Thursday; one received a quilt from me a few years ago (sigh of relief). I've delivered two of the three--Sweet and Sour, as well as David's Plaids which I finished at 2:30 this morning (more about that quilt on a later post). Jennifer's is the last for this group.
I'll be busy!
Thanks for visiting my blog. I hope you'll enjoy reading about my quilts and travels. I make lots of quilts, many as gifts, some for charity, and a few on commission. I love to travel and I own a car, but I am afraid to drive in heavy traffic. So I often use public transportation to visit big cities. I don't just go on trips--I have adventures!
