5 leftover blocks. Pete bought them for me after a "hint" about wanting him to buy ne the daily special on Missouri Star WEB site. It was a $50 gift cert of $25 that they sell once a year right after Christmas. 
Pete waited a day or two and bought rhe daily special THAT day. It was a "layer cake" in this color collection I would normally not have purchased. They made some lovely quilts!

 





Bold Baby Blocks

 Made to learn and experiment with the process of tumbling blocks. 

I have the template and used this turorial: https://youtu.be/ytcpvfoAV8A?si=V6JRvJOBhZxXeDBw

Vacation Quilt

 I finished this small quilt top years ago and put it away. Then last year I grabbed up several After Christmas clearance fleecie blankets for $2.50 at Walmart. Large loose swirls on the quilt frame and no batting at all make a nice lightweight cozy blanket perfect for airline trips or cruise ship naps. 




Based on this quilt
