Bloggers' Quilt Festival


Ooops, I almost missed this! When cleaning up my RSS, apparently I was too thorough. But here you go: Elisa's Emergency Quilt

Last year, I received a very disconcerting call that my friend's pregnancy was threatening to go awfully wrong. She's the mother of my older daughter's bestest friend in the whole wide world and I really like her too.

Because quilting is cathartic for me - a substitute for therapy really - and I had seen AmandaJean's Ragged Squares tutorial, I thought this would be a good project to complete in not-a-lot-of-hours.

The quilt was very well received and has even found its way into my dreams, inspiring a new version of it:

In the Pink - it's almost finished too.
