There's Snow Business Like Snow Business

Finished another cuddle-size quilt yesterday.  I'm so happy with it.  It's cozy!


Peri and I tried it out last night watching 'Grimm' on tv.  The flannel/fleece combination is very cuddly.  Peri would like it to be a little bigger, so I'll need to factor that in next time.  The fabrics have snowmen and hot cocoa and polka dots.  It is the largest quilt that I have machine-stippled all in one piece.  The finished quilting is nowhere near perfect, but I learned a lot after doing so much quilting all at once.  I look forward to practicing this technique on future projects.

I was able to make a little bonus quilt from the leftover fabrics.


Ever since Zade developed arthritis, she likes to make a little nest with whatever cushion-y things she can find.  She likes to keep this quilt stuffed under my desk.  That way, she's both comfortable and gets a little peace from Peri.  lol.
