A relic of my pre-cosplay days :-D

Trying to explain financial statements to your mother is hard when she doesn’t speak English and you know little Chinese. >_>; That’s how I spent my morning…

This afternoon, I got an old quilt top that I washed over the weekend ironed. It took a long time and two full tanks of water in the iron due to all the little seams! The quilt top is one that I had started piecing many years ago, I think when I was still in high school. I ran short on one of the fabrics (the green with the pink roses if I recall correctly) and never finished it since I only had enough for several more of the green blocks.

I checked and it will just about cover the top of a twin bed so I’m thinking of finally finishing it before I go back to costume sewing in January or so. I’ve got enough blocks left to make it one row wider and I need to dig through my fabric stash to see if I have anything good for a few borders, in an attempt to make it less shrimpy. ^_^; Here’s a pic of what I have now.

Yes, that does sound difficult. XD; Were you finally able to succeed?

The quilt looks so nice and soft and snuggly! I love quilts. ^^ I can't stand blankets, since they're scratchy and hairs get stuck to them, so quilts are my preferred covers. And sheets. XD
