DWM 1-11-16

I am still working on the Bonnie Hunter mystery, but I also need to get a baby quilt done for a little one who's arrival is in March. Friday I was going through some old quilt magazines and found this pattern in a March/April 2013 Quiltmaker magazine. I started cutting is out Saturday night after work and finished the blocks on Sunday. Just have to put them all together now. It makes a 54 x 66 quilt which is more  a kid quilt or one to grow with. I am still a little unsure about the border fabric. I have a green but it is not as bright as all the other fabrics. The pattern showed it with a turquoise blue, so I may have to do some shopping. I was able to use the white dot that I had already cut for a black and white disappearing nine patch.   I have other blocks made to in large that one and no longer plan to do the applique border.

Got to work today, freight day as usual but for all Alabama fans it is a big day, National Championship game. Roll Tide and have a great day.
