MASKS AND QUILT-A-LONG

It's been a while again.  I have been very busy and it won't be slowing down until the end of the year.  I have several craft shows scheduled from now until a couple weeks before Christmas so a lot of my time gets used up preparing for those.  

This week I noticed that my grandson keeps wearing the same mask that I made him several months ago and when I asked him about it, it said he had lost a few.  So I decided I better make him a few more.  While I was at it, I made some other ones for DH, myself (although I don't really need more) and friends.   I noticed some plaids in the closet and thought that would be good for men.


Top one is the more dressy one and there
was also a red plaid one that he took.

I also got  Lori's quilt-a-long instructions for this week.  So far, I am keeping up with it.  I'm not sure how long it will continue.  Here's what I have so far.

I hope it's not too scrappy!  It's hard to know what arrangement to do when you don't know what it is going to look like when it's finished.

Now, I will be working on a quilt that my granddaughter helped me with when we visited in Florida.  She said she wants it, so I will be sending it to her for her birthday.  I'm getting ready to put the borders on and will post it soon.

Happy Fall!!

COULDN'T RESIST!

Lori from Humble Quilts is having a QAL aka quilt-a-long.   I tried for a couple minutes to resist it, but I've done so many of her QALs that it didn't really take too long to decide to do it.  After I saw the first step and how easy it was, plus it's only 24" square,  I figured I could squeeze it in.  Some of her QALs are my very favorite little quilts, after all.  I haven't done any of her bigger QALs.

Here's the first step.  Cut some squares.


Next, sew most of them into 4-patches.  Very easy!


The next step is some HSTs.  I'll get to them next week.

Have a great weekend ladies!
