One down....11 to go

The Gumnuts started sorting out a dozen of so quilts to sew for a Women's refuge last Wednesday at our regular meeting and one of them is an old UFO of mine.  It was actually a quilt that I started making for a young girl and then decided that it was too somber looking so decided to make a second one and this one never got finished.  I still have to put the top and bottom borders on it but it is nice to see it nearing completion.
I bought this Aussie fabric about 14 years ago and this is the third quilt I have made featuring it.  I just love it.  I still have some left but I am determined to make a quilt for myself before I use it all up on quilts to give away.  Maybe this year.
 I just think these animals are the cutest!




I want to have this one ready for layering when the Gumnuts next get together!
Till next time................happy stitching!

  5. Very cute fabric - I think you should put your name on the top of your to-do list. That way you will be sure to get your quilt made before the fabric disappears.
