I had in mind the desire for a black-white-grey quilt and it is coming to fruition. Not exactly what I initially anticipated, and in all honesty, probably better. I'm excited. I'm using churn dash blocks for it, 30 in total, few repeats. I laid the quilt out yesterday to get the blocks in order and have one row sewn together. No pictures yet - I want to have a bit more done before I do show-and-tell on this one.
What I did complete was another baby quilt, this one for my nephew and his wife, who are expecting their fourth child, a girl. But I couldn't go all girly-girl, so compromised with this cheery fabric. I was pleased with the result! Since I didn't make quilts for the older three kids, I made them custom pillow cases. The other daughter received one to match her new little sister's quilt. For the boys, one was a football theme and the other cammo.
Other than quilting, we did sneak in some travel to eastern Tennessee. It was beautiful! We traveled by bike and enjoyed much time exploring and checking out some fun roads.
