SBChallenge - Flimsey 5 Finished.

Flimsey 5 is done and I'm really pleased with how it turned out.  It is from Bonnie Hunter's pattern Bricks & Stepping Stones.  This is going to a resident at a local nursing home.  The lady receiving it uses a wheelchair that is like a huge blue armchair, hence the use of blues in this quilt.  Hope she likes it :)

I've also made progress on Flimsey 6.  The centre blocks are done and I love how using the assorted squares makes the background more interesting.  Now it needs the borders ...

(PS:  There was a lack of natural light for this picture so the colours are 'off'.  Will try and do better next time.)

  3. Well I've never given a quilt to an older person that just didn't rave about the gift and thoughtfulness......how sweet of you!
    Now I have had the reaction from a young person that said " What am I suppose to do with it?"
    Now I make sure my efforts are appreciated and I'm more selective as to who gets my creations :0).
    Keep up the good work!
    Happy Sewing

  4. I never tire of the bricks and stepping stones pattern. Every time you change the colors you get a new look.
