Is Spring finally here?

We have had a solid week of spring like weather, so I am hoping that winter is done in our area. I feel for those that are still getting snow. Aside from it being time for winter to be gone, it is going to make it harder for the farmers to get their crops going.


This quilt is for our neighbor's baby. I did it quilt as you go. 3 1/2" strips that I sewed to each other through all the layers. Sewed the first 2 strips together. Flipped the second strip up and ironed it and then proceeded to attach the third strip etc. It is a fast way to do a small quilt. Eash strip on this one is different. The backing is a dinosaur print that I used on the front of the next quilt.
This quilt is for a great nephew that was born a month ago. I love the dinosaur's, they are so cute. I just did pinwheels between each strip. The pinwheel blocks strips are different sizes. the backing on this one is dogs of all breeds. Glad these 2 are done now onto the next project which I am doing for our church's car show in July.
