Update & Happy Mardi Gras!!!!

Lots going on here at The Quilt Cave. Christmas was lovely, gifts exchanged and everyone enjoyed the Big Turkey Dinner. (That I nearly dropped on the floor, but that’s another story a la Mr. Bean).

Mom’s Quilt is Finished!

Wellllllllllllll It’s all finished! All the threads trimmed, bound neatly and ready to go! It’s a bit too square than I had first planned but, I’m pretty happy with it.  ‘s favourite colours are coral and rust and coppery colours; I hope she likes this. She told me about the heavy quilts she slept under as a child; and I used a heavy blanket and batting for the fill. It’s nice and toasty warm; I tested it out watching TV last week and it worked really well. Nice and warm.…
