A Small Top

 

A Small Top
36 x 46

I previously mentioned someone gave me some six inch Snowball blocks with red corners. I divided them into groups by theme.  I have already made and donated one with a sporty theme. This one has a train theme. 

I happened to have that fabric with trains I used in the center in my box of novelty bits and pieces. It just so happened to be the perfect width strip I needed. 

The Nine Patches and Sashings I worked on as leader/enders. I'm not sure when it will get quilted. Now that it is getting cooler I want to get some larger quilts finished. I don't have air conditioning and quilt on my sewing machine so not many larger quilts get finished in the summer. 

I think the light blue Snowballs might feature The Little Engine That Could. That was one of my favorite Little Golden Books when I was a little girl. Other favorites were The Little Red Hen and Aesop's Fables especially "The Ant and the Grasshopper" and "The Lion and The Mouse". Oh, and I can't forget The Velveteen Rabbit!

And sew on...

Great flimsy!!! The signs in the middle are perfect for this one. My brain immediately saw stop signs even though the snowballs are blue. :-)

Another job well done. That is going to bring a lot of comfort.
