My Gran, Betty R is turning 99 on the 29th of March. As the quilting bug has taken hold of me for this pandemic, I decided to make her a lap quilt. Like all projects, it took a little longer then expected to finish and I was finally able to post it to her yesterday. As there is a pandemic, it will take two weeks to arrive.

Being as old as she is her eyes are failing. And she loves purple. When she was younger she always had a garden. So a purple flower was in order. Mostly purple, with a few pinks. Some green and blue to top the petals and bold colours that are reminiscent of her wonderful gardens. This is a lap quilt – 36*44 inches. Just enough to keep her warm and light enough for her not to be lost under it. I added some ruffle flowers so she can run her fingers through and around them. It was fun to make.

My next project will be two more quilts for my grand niece and nephew (twins) who will be turning 1 in early may. These quilts will most likely arrive late – too early to tell just yet, but my day jobs will keep me busy too.

What are your projects? I would like to know. It is fun to share. Thanks for dropping by :-). Be kind, stay safe, be well.
