On April 27th my S-I-L had
a "vision" from here.
The vision was to make a quilt for her 2nd Mom
(who was being booked for medical procedures)
The plan was to have the quilt finished before the procedures began,
my Bro created templates for us, and so began a speed project.

hmmm... looks like a whole other block pattern.
120 of
these 6½" blocks to press seams OPEN....
and to trim....
Starting to see circles.....
6 extra
blocks, "no waste policy" here; we started creating the back...
A window
(with lights on) siding, leaves in the garden, grass,
and can you see the bit of
sunshine at the top?
Free motion
quilted, and ready for binding.
Can you
find the teddy bear?
There's a family story
about a teddy bear and getting well.
So a (where's waldo type) teddy bear was a
necessity.
A couple of
quilted hearts (on the Kaffe Fassett piece here), also a necessity.
The grape fabric was part of the Mom's Christmas gift to me so naturally
it needed to be involved too.
Binding....almost
done.
The front...
The back...
Ready for
delivery & on time! Done!
