So, now that Faith Olive's quilt is done, I decided to move on to my next one. It's got 3 houses and a church and is made entirely from 2 1/2 inch strips cut into different sizes. I guess they call that a "Jelly roll", but I didn't buy the roll that the pattern is supposed to be made with. I didn't like it, so I decided to trail blaze and go off on my own tangent. (What, me make things more difficult and weird??) I picked out my own fabrics and made it completely different. The shapes of the houses are the same, but that's about it. I am so glad I did! It's going to be so cute. This one is for my Mommy. I think it's very her and that she'll love it. :) I'll post again later on down the line as it comes together more. This is just the begining stages.

Such a beautiful quilt. Mom is the quilter, well my sisters are too but they didn't add to their families in their forties--I'm busy with preschoolers, at least that's my excuse. Just want to let you know that you've been "surfed" Drop on over to my blog to see what that means. ~verna
I am loving that church and those houses! Did you ever mail Olive's quilt off? It's kind of hard to shove quilts into a box and give them to a stranger at a counter. I gave the postal worker a good, hard look when I did, like sending a telepathic message of "I'm onto you."
How are you feeling?
