Hello Springtime!
Hello April!!
Hello M&M makers!!!
It's time for another quilt challenge. This one is super fast (and by that I mean EASY) and super CHARM friendly. If you've been participating in the SSPM guild swap, then you have lots of charms. If not ... then dig into your stash and find the perfect fabrics to cut into 5" squares.
The pattern directions have been uploaded to the M&M Facebook group. I included a link to easy "on-point" directions. The simplest of units can make the nicest quilts. A 4-patch and a pinwheel ... can't get much simpler than that! If you want more instruction and different math, check out Mari, the Academic Quilter - I saw this quilt there 1st.
Let's get sewing!
My sweet grandie, Amelie, needs a "big-girl" quilt for her new bed. Purple is her favorite color. What is it about purple that is SEW appealing to 3 year olds? And ... I visited a new quilt shop and they have beautiful fabrics ... add that all together and you have the perfect combination for a new quilt.
Charms, 2.5" squares and yardage ... all of MY favorite things!
Hands 2 Help Comfort Quilt Challenge 2022 is where I originally saw this particular quilt. With Mari's permission (The Academic Quilter), I changed the math to make it more CHARM friendly. Links to her blog and H2H can be found in the pattern directions ... go to the Facebook group and check it out!
In the meantime, I have made the backing and the binding for this quilt. Then I put it on the "to do" chair. It will get quilted ... as soon as my Handiquilter gets better. She's a bit sick right now but help is on the way.
Keep Stitching,
Mary
