Plant Your Garden

This is a small quilt...44x50...pieced in January 2016.  I had some little garden blocks and added some selvages to them. It will be donated to the veterans home....some wheelchair bound person will need a lap quilt.

I traveled across the row, going around the block, inside the block, and on to the next one...all across the row. in fact, i then just moved down to the next row and kept on going till the bobbin ran out. haha

I put some leaves and an occasional flower in the border

This is my favorite block. it says Gardens are not made sitting in the shade...plant your garden.

I used various bindings left over from other projects

Threads used was a Glide bright yellow for the top....which looks like a lime green against the dark green border...and So Fine bright green for the bobbin.

It was small and went quick. On to the next.
