this little piece is now ready to baste and quilt. i took this photo from an angle, which explains the wonkiness of the photo. after viewing all the red and white quilts displayed in new york earlier this year, i was compelled to make one of my own. in my new sense of frugality of time, i made a wallhanging instead of a larger piece. the binding will be more of the red. my desire to make the schoolhouse block has been quenched, even though i'd really like to have a big quilt in this pattern. ***** just this morning started quilting the lovers' links quilt. now that summer is officially here, and with temps climbing to 80s today, i'm not sure how long it will take to quilt this bed quilt, but pretty sure it will be done by the time autumn rolls around. first up, though, is to finish the spools piece to cross off another UFO from the list.

I'm loving this! I do have a weakness for red and house quilts though, so I may be biased :)
