Design Wall Monday

I finished making blocks with the solids jelly roll. I didn’t use the white strips, they just looked too stark. I will probably make a few more blocks  out of my stash so this will end up the right size for Quilts Beyond Borders. I have been playing with layouts but I think I like this best.

I will use a solid gray for blocks in between. This will be a great top for practicing machine quilting.

We had a wonderful Easter. Here are Daughters #1 and 3.

And my son sent me these photos of himself with Baby L.

    I enjoyed the wonderful pictures of your very attractive family. Your son looks like he’s enjoying being a dad. 🙂 The quilt reminds me of those Little MisMatched stockings I buy for my granddaughter. haha
