For My Sister

This is my latest big project and it is for my sweet sister. It is a double nine patch done is 30's reproduction fabrics with a different solid in the middle of the 3" nine patch blocks. Obviously, I am no where near done but at least it is almost half done. My quilt guild is asking the members to make comfort quilts to be taken to Scott Air Force base so I need to get going on that too. My Frayed Edges group made some blocks and donated some orphans so I need to put them together.Several years ago, I won these churn dash blocks in a drawing at guild so I finally got them put together. The quilt will be donated to Project Linus. I've been looking through my kits and UFOs to find more quick projects because I have a short attention span right now and have also been having a lot of back pain so I can't sit very long at a time. I tell you what, getting old is not for the faint of heart.
