hubby’s quilt

labeled pins for the moose and the bear – lots of little pieces

Putting together a quilt takes planning. this one is predominantly black and white with splashes of color and it looks nothing like the original design for hubby’s quilt – more picks below.

I love sewing and quilting allows me to sew a lot!

The Moose and the Bear in the quilt are blocks from Wonderful Woodlands Quilt of the Art East Quilting Co. They are found here “https://arteastquiltingco.com/online-shop/ols/products/wonderful-woodland-quilt-pattern-booklet”. The Moose and the Bear are complex yet easy patterns – complex as there are so many pieces and labelling each piece as cut made the process very easy.

Hubby holding the quilt – very camera shy

It is 50 inches long and 62 inches wide, so hubby can warp up on those cold winter days.

laying out the last block – this was an idea but the heart ended up on the back and some more geometrics finished the quilt

we owe a lot to our first peoples, and there is still so much for all of us to learn together. to learn to live and respect our environment, to learn that it is hard and so very worthwhile to overcome pain of system wide abuses and grow with love, respect, compassion and empathy as a nation and as a civilization

I overslept and missed the best parts of this sunrise
