Progress report and thanks

Thank you friends.
It was so nice of you to stop by
and leave such SWEET comments
and encouragement yesterday!!!
Blogland is a very nice place to be.
;)
 
This is where I decided to go with my son's quilt.

I cut the 1/2 yard pieces of the dreaded sports fabric
into 18"x18" squares.
I'm surrounding them with my free style log cabin blocks
that I had already pieced into columns.
 
Only two more sides to GO!!!

  5. Oh nice! This makes those pieces of sports fabric visible as opposed to cut up in small pieces. Very nice. And well done to your son on completing his schooling.

  10. Oh, a wonderful, simple solution! It looks great, and I love the way the blues in the log cabins set off the reds and oranges in the sport fabrics. He's gonna love it! Congrats to the graduate!

  11. Beth, I read this post first and then the previous one where you explained your dilemma. I didn't even notice the sports-themed squares. I was just admiring the patchwork outlines. You are such a loving, good mama.

  12. I knew it-I knew it! I had NO doubt that you would put that fabric on the front for your son!! That is how you roll!
    You are a great mom! ;]
