Another top finished

Retreat traveling quilt
I call it a retreat traveling quilt since that's how I constructed the blocks.  This was a kit I had bought on sale.  Somehow I separated the fabrics and put a set out.  I didn't have enough to make the original pattern so I added leftovers from my Gingham rose group.  Although these are not Patriotic fabric per Se, It does have the colors.  I like how it turned out.  I have it ready for the quilting and binding by my friend. Oh and I found the fabric from the kit later.  Isn't that about right!

Gelinda's quilt

Gelinda's quilt
I got this picture outside on a good day and it shows off the colors really good.It feels really good to use scraps to make something for someone you love.  She really loved it and I surprised her I think.  This is 100 blocks and is a generous queen size.
