This and that...

I forgot to tell you I got this book for Christmas!  I don't have a big library of quilt books.  I hope every quilter gets a chance to read Victoria Findlay Wolfe's 15 Minutes of Play.  This is a book to be savored.  It's like walking into an art museum.  You get on overload fairly quickly as this book just exudes inspiration.  It's yummy!  Victoria has a couple of blogs.  The one I follow is Bumble Beans.

I have been working on the pieced backing for my Asian quilt.

And I just finished this for my littlest grandson.  I crocheted a blanket for him when he was first born.  It eventually became his 'go to' comfort item and has seen some pretty heavy use!  It has been caught in the stroller wheels and repaired.  It has spent many hours mopping the floor as he drags it along from here to there.  It's been washed a hundred times. The little guy is three now and desperately needs a replacement.  He has been watching me crochet this one these past few weeks and lovingly fingers it from time to time.  'Is it ready yet, Grandma?'  Well, now it is and tomorrow it's his!
