I won this quilt kit for participating in the 2014 ALYofF. The pattern is designed by Amanda Konarske for Honey, Bunny and Doll. I dug it our of my "kit" pile as I finally found the perfect recipient for it. A dear work friend started our school year with a diagnosis of breast cancer. Now, with surgery behind here, she starts six weeks of radiation after the Thanksgiving holiday.
I plan to get this finished and gifted for my November One Monthly Goal.
Luckily I have a long three day weekend coming up, hubby has some long work shifts, because I need to get 'er done in like two and half weeks! Luckily it easy sewing. I plan to back it with a soft, cuddly minky and quilt it using my breast cancer ribbon pantograph. It will end up being the perfect lap size quilt measuring 45" x 72". Okay...well, that's what I'm up to guys.
Also a big thank you to Patty, who blogs at Elm Street Quilts, for continuing our OMG linky.
