i've seen some very pretty patterns... are those the color/pattern choices you are doing as well sassy?

well I used to cheat when I made small quilts.. i'd buy the kind that the fabric looked like a quilt.. i'd place it over an old blanket and sew down in the spots that looked like quilt seams.. then add a back and edge.. so wa la.. a quilt.. without making quilt squares..

but I have done a large quilt the old fashioned real way.. one for myself.. I've finished the entire amount of squares and put them together.. but now to sew them all together with a back and top stitching has been quite the task.. not to mention it is really big.. so it takes up so much room.. I've put it away for a bit..

This project is smaller.. I'll take a picture of the squares so you can see thec colors.. I really like the fabric I picked out..
