Retreat Final Day
My plan for Wednesday was to put the finishing touches on Loosey Goosey; however, as I reported in yesterday's post, that plan was thwarted on several fronts.

You'd never know those were left overs. That project looks very planned and scripted. Congrats on a very pretty near finish.
ReplyDeleteGreat way to use those leftovers and put them to good use. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
ReplyDeleteI like how you're using those leftovers, Libby! The border blocks are really neat. Leftovers keep creating leftovers, don't they? Sometimes you just have to laugh!
ReplyDeletePretty!! I like where you are headed with this quilt. LOVE the fact that you put some of the leftovers to work for the border!!

ReplyDeleteI love those colours, my favourite palette!
