This week's piece had to be a simple one. I am still unpacking and setting up my sewing room.
1 made 12 mini 2.5 inch heart blocks then turned them on point. I used scraps and left over charm squares but I had to buy backing fabric at our variety store in town today. I still can't find my shoe box of sold fabrics!!!!
So I guess I cheated on my fabric Diet lol it was only half a yard and I got the super cheep stuff since it's a diaper pad not a show piece.
Really having a hard time naming this on.
I started thinking about what it's for and
Decided to call it " Random heart " because of the random quilting.
Hope Tucker enjoys his
diaper changes from now on!! :)

Kris - Project Quilting Season 6- week 3 - orphan block challenge
This week I ended up using my patriotic theme Orphan blocks :) the string blocks originally were for a wall hanging but I scrapped it because string blocks too too long. And the center of the star block are left over from a Christmas table runner I made last July :) This quilt is a lap quilt for my hubby. He served 12 years in the Navy. And i used up the left over fabric i used on his Christmas stocking and Bible Cover.
This is my 2nd attempt at a rag quilt....still not sold but I didn't want to just do that simple "x" through the block. I quilted each square as if each was a mini quilt with a star fm design. I also used fabric that belonged to my grandma on the back. It a little dated but it means a lot to me to use stuff she once had in my projects :)
this finished at about 48 x 48
Name- " Tribute to my Hubby"
