I have not done much sewing lately except for my apt. I made new Valan ces for the kitchen and dinning room and my other valances for the 2 bedroo ms and living room was able to use the old ones and didn't even have to alt er them. I also made place mats and napkins to match. I don't like curtains covering all my windows so just have vertical blinds and valances. Yesterday I cut out material for two crib quilts. First one has differ ent colored tractors on a white background, so I added 3 different solid co lors to match tractors and these are just 5 1/2 in squares filler blocks. T he second crib quilt is pink half squares using the churn dash pattern. www .quilterscasche.com has more than one size if you want to try this quilt. T hink this will be cute, especially since I am using white 2 inch sashing an d dark pink 2 inch corner squares at corners of sashing blocks. I hope to g et started on these two quilts sometime next week. All most forgot, I have also made a variety of cat/dog place mats for water bowls/food. These are all made with cat and dog prints of fabric. I s till have some pot holders to make from left over material from other proje cts. The crib quilts, cat/dog mats and pot holders all go to the Senior cra ft show in November. I try to donate something to help seniors out. Most of these were done just before my move, while packing boxes. Sandy$
