DQS10 Fabrics and...For Hire!

My first commission!
YAY!

I've been asked to finish a quilt

by a friend of a friend.

It's a t-shirt quilt for her son.

Susan cut squares from her son's t-shirts

and ironed the interfacing on.

Then, decided she didn't want to finish it herself.
So, here we are.

There are 63 squares cut at 9 1/2 inches

and 24 squares cut at 4 1/2 inches.

I can make a nice quilt for her.

Deadline...mid-April.

My only wish is that I had gotten

my hands on these before she cut them out.

But, it is what it is.

We talked about what she wanted
and what I could do 
and I have a plan.

Sashing and border and binding with Kona solid.

Backing of denim.

It'll be a fun quilt for her son to have.

I finally put together some fabrics for DQS10.
Yes, I know...the batiks are for that swap.
This is an additional doll quilt.
Yup, for the same person.
I had 4 meadowsweet fabrics and I
found 3 other fabrics that work well with it.

 

Now to decide what to do with them.

Right now, I have no ideas!
Hope inspiration hits soon...
the deadline is April 15.

hmmmm...guessin' I'll be busy between now and then.

Maureen and I ran a few errands

together this morning.

We stopped at the lqs and visited my quilt.

Ohman, it looks so nice hanging there...
I felt like a proud mama!

The girls at the shop were very pleased with it.

Hope you're having a great weekend.
