Quilter's ADHD Strikes Again!


Seeing all the cool D9P blocks coming together, I had an idea!  So...  I went scrap bin diving last night and came up with these fabrics!


A friend/coworker, who is expecting her first grandchild in three months, asked me to make a gender-neutral baby quilt for her.   

 
She's offered to pay me but.... everything is going to come from stash or scrap bins so I can cut her a deal!


It's a stash-busting kinda year, yes indeed it is!

    #1 - I agree with Janet O.
    #2 - I'm so glad I'm not the only one stricken with Quilter's ADHD from time to time (whew!)

    Woo-hoo! Any reason is a good reason, right? And a new baby is a great reason.

    It will be so cute! I have some of those turtle scraps somewhere.

    I hope to do some more stash/scrap organization, including sorting and trimming some strips today. Also am trying to make at least 4 d9ps each day. A long weekend will hopefully allow me to get lots done.

    That will be a very cute baby quilt. It should come together quickly, too - especially the speed at which you sew!! Glad you are back in business. I have my main machine at the shop right now. I hope she's not too lonely.

    Great colors for a baby to focus on, he/she will love their new quilt. Do I see another D9P in the near future?
