Yesterday I finished this lap quilt.
Bonnie Hunter offered the free leader/ender pattern in the summer of 2023.
I dug into my scrap stash especially leftover binding bits.
These blocks were the bigger size offered in the pattern.
The middle section contains the first blocks I made.
I put the blocks aside to work on other projects.
After a while I started sewing the blocks again and did not re-read the instructions.
The top and bottom sections are the newer blocks.
When I started sewing the blocks together I realized the newer blocks twirled in the opposite direction.
So I named this quilt Oopsie Daisy Whoops.
Some of my favorite fabric bits are in this quilt.
Everything came from my stash including the frankenbatting.
It will be donated to a quilt guild charity.
My paper pieced version of Gotham Quilts' Indiglow pattern is now a top.
The plan is to add some rows to the top and bottom to make it a rectangle.
Then I want to hand quilt it, kind of like sashiko stitching.
I used indigo fabrics I have collected
plus two fat quarters with traditional Japanese children at play.
I'm thinking of calling it Playing in Shades of Indigo and Gold.
