last minute

What do you do when a friend calls to say
her little boy's second birthday is tomorrow.
Her little boy has Cerebral Palsy
and you KNOW you have some printed blocks
from a cloth book project that
would make a great quilt gift for him??!!!
Have your bright fabrics handy.
Check.
Sew your brains out.
Check.

Quilt sparingly.
Check.



Make sure you have plenty of
orange backing in your stash.
Check.

That stash
sure
does come in handy!!!!
