Oh, and I have been quilting and recently finished a lap quilt in neutrals using the Yellow Brick Road pattern. I’ve done this pattern before and enjoyed it immensely. But I’ve never done it in neutrals. This was a kit we found at a terrific quilting store in Great Falls, Montana.
One thing I learned about kits was to NOT wash the fabric first. One fat quarter in this kit shrunk A LOT and I had to find something in my supply to fill in the gaps. My dad and stepmom will be getting it for Christmas.
Once I get a quilt on the frame, I have to get over the fear of taking that first stitch. Sometimes, I wish I could be more like my aunt and just dive in (or, as she says, jump off the cliff)! Anyway, I think this turned out really well.
