Let's Pretend It is Square

This is a quick photo - clearly! - of my work in progress of a large granny square. It will block into a square - it is not that wonky! 

I am making a blanket comprised of 4 large squares. My intent is to use three 100-gram balls on each square and this photo captures where things stand after two 100-gram balls. It is about 20" square.

This will be my 3rd crochet project. I really enjoy how portable the project is as well as how easy it is to pull back a few stitches to fix an error without destroying the whole project!

I am not in a rush to finish and am looking forward to seeing how this comes together.

Have a wonderful day! Patty

Dream

Meet Dream. A UFO from 2022! 

I started this quilt in response to a guild challenge to work in a monochromatic color palette with the option of adding one other accent color. Using just scraps, I made the quilt top, did much of the quilting and then it sat, and sat, and sat for 3 1/2 years!

But now it is done! I adding some big stitch quilting which I think adds a lot to the piece although it is hard to photograph.

The quilt is faced and finishes 18.5" wide by 14.5" tall.

Have a wonderful day! Patty

Bee Blocks - April and May

The 2026 season of the @unscriptedquiltsbee began in March and has gotten off to a great start!

For April, @feltlikesweets sent each of us a unique section of a black and white photo and asked that we recreate using a color palette derived by 5 columns in the Kona color chart. 

I can't share the photo with you or any bee members yet but it will be fun to see this come together. I am curious on what you think that photo (at the top of this post) represents!

For May, @ellyn asked for large arrows in a basic primary color. This was a lot of fun to create and is 18.5" square.

My month is June and I've just mailed out a FQ to each bee member so it is ready to go once I share the prompt.

You can see my previous blocks here and the quilt I made last year.

Have a wonderful day! Patty
