Thanks again, Amy, for bringing all of us quilters together to share our passion. I love seeing what all the other quilters have been up to this past year and visit all the other blogs.
I decided to add this fun quilt to the festival this year!
I call it "Around the Neighborhood". It was made from blocks from a swap I was in. I asked for wonky houses with a white background and bright, happy fabrics. Boy, did they come through for me! After I put the blocks together, I found the perfect fabric for the backing.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Now, I'm off to look at all these other amazing quilts on here!
Happy Quilting, Sandy
