Monkey Wrench Top
86 x 93
5 inch blocks on point
Monkey Wrench blocks were sewn together randomly.
Several years ago one of my Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) projects was making Monkey Wrench blocks from scraps in three different sizes - 5 inch, 7.5 inch and 10 inch.
I have finished several different comfort quilts from both the 7.5 and 10 inch blocks; however, this is the only one made from 5 inch blocks.
There sure were a lot of points to try to match up in this one.
And how did I manage to iron, sew into rows and then sew rows together and miss that oopsie until now?
And now I suppose it will be awhile before it gets quilted.
And sew on...

CELEBRATE! (my word of the year)
Oct. 6 - Finished a book! - The Huntress by Kate Quinn. Fictional story about the several people who band together to hunt for a WWII Nazi murderess. The Nazi murderess is based on two real women, one a female camp guard named Hermine Braunsteiner, the other an SS officer's wife named Erna Petri. This is the third book I have read by Kate Quinn. The other two were The Rose Code and The Alice Network.
Oct. 7 - Hubby John had bone biopsy on Oct. 2. Results today show no cancer or dysplasia!!!!!
Oct. 8 - My brother Kerry's 69th birthday.
