Feb. OMG Valentine Flimsy Finish

Inspired by Carole's quilts for the California Thomas Fire victims, I used the Perkiomen Valley Block Pattern that was posted on the Ventura Quilt Guild Website to destash and finish my Valentine fabrics into a cozy 72" x 72" quilt top for my February OMG. This is destash project #2...done!
I grabbed a quick picture of my Feb. OMG finish before work today. We had another couple inches of  that light, fluffy kind of snow last night meaning this would get way too wet if I tried to take pictures outside today. But, I wanted to get my finish posted for the linky.  I'll be sure to show much better pictures once it's quilted and the binding is on. But I sure do like it!

I do however, have this cute pile of 4 1/2" squares left-over. It includes 55 light and 20 dark patterns as seen above. I thought about adding two more rows to this top but decided to add a flannel backing and use it as a comfy winter couch quilt. Okay. Be sure to leave a comment if you are interested in receiving this little bunch as a happy mail delivery to you. Congrats to follower Kristy!

    That's such a fun quilt! And of course it's well loved by your faithful sidekick! We got snow today, too, and it was hard taking pics of my OMG goal, too. But I got 'er done!

    Interesting to see this pattern using one predominate color instead of scrappy. I liked Carole's, but your's is luscious too. Nice to have a Valentine quilt that's not all hearts. Not that there's anything wrong with hearts.
    I'd welcome your leftover squares.
