For those of you who remember, I have a quilt at the Pick Museum of Anthropology at NIU. Well, I offered to make a replica quilt for The Center for the Study of Women, Gender and Sexuality. They accepted, and I finally got around to starting it. Well, I did quite a bit of sewing this weekend, and I finally have the top together, and I eve started quilting it last night! The museum exhibit was extended, so I’m hoping to drop it off before the show ends! Fingers Crossed!

I Started A New Quilt

I started a new quilt… not that I don’t have a bunch started. We all know how that goes. I’m also trying to go through all of my damn jelly rolls. I did a count, and I have over 70 jelly roll packs. Here is one down!

I’m not sure what I’m going to name it yet, but something about it screams “On Fire”. Can you tell I have a quilt type??? Hopefully I’ll finish this soon.
