Time for a Quickie

It's a flimsy!

It will be a donation quilt when finished. 

42 x 60

 Every once in awhile when I feel like I'm accomplishing little or nothing I feel a need for some instant gratification. 

So I dug through the orphans and parts to see if I could put together a quilt top. 

In the orphanage I found thirty-six 6 inch rail blocks cut from left over strips from a kaleidoscope quilt I finished in 2015. 

And in the Parts Department I found those six inch Broken Dishes blocks I made last month in order to empty a 3.5 HST bin. 

I added a few 1.5 inch strips all around...

...and a little bit of LOVE. 

And voila! 

Every Once in a While I Need a Quickie

Four reversible fabric bags I've made to use as gift wrap. 

I've made several chicken themed ones and mailed them off already. The bag can be used as a fabric grocery bag.  The contents of the chicken themed bags include at the least a chicken hot pad, chicken embroidered dish towel and crochet dish rag. 

The Super Heroes and Monster High bags will have gifts in them for the Grand Kids. 

Guess what the gifts are! 

I've made a few more pillowcases using the hot dog method.  One of the pizza themed ones will go to my youngest son who is 30.  I think his diet consists mostly of pizza so he probably really has pizza stains on the pillowcase he uses now.  There are just some things a mother doesn't really want to know. 

I've made everyone else's pillowcases throughout the year so the extra pizza and cookie cases will go into my gift stash box. You never know when you will need a quick gift.

Finishing it up with Crazy Mom Quilts.
