Anyone else thinking about making one of large united states quilts from the last issue. I thought it was a fun way to mark where you have been

Emily, I was just looking at my newest MJF magazine, trying to absorb it's fulfilling wonderment, when I noticed the quilt you're talking about!! Oh my, I loved it, so will give some more thought to it....I have some swaps to finish and get ready to mail first. Are you planning to start on it? Hugs and smiles, Lin

I REALLY want to make that quilt!! Waiting for a good month of rain so I can stay inside and work on it!! Sometimes I wish there were more hours in a day!!

You sound like me Teresa, Just so much I want to do!!! For the girls that are thinking about the quilt, at Hobby Lobby they have some material with each individual state in all different colors on a background of bright blue that is really cute. I got a yard of it just to keep on hand.... but it was really colorful and fun!! Good luck to you all!! Smiles, Beth

You can never be to kind!

No Hobby Lobby here, just JoAnn's fabric. I might have to search a little for it!
