PROGRESS!!

A quilt top 42" by 42" - no fancy pieces - just colorful squares and stripes.  But...for an Old Gal, who hasn't done much sewing in years, struggled with the cutting and found the scant 1/4" seams maddening (I'm programmed to the 5/8" used in clothing) this quilt top is not bad.  Honestly, I am pleased with the result so far.  I love the colorful fabric!

Tomorrow I'll get it squared up and ready for quilting.  That may be a bit ambitious.  I do have some serious ironing left.  I can dream! 

I'm thinking the quilt name will be Sunshine Zoo. 

Happy quilting to all!  I believe I will unwind with a wee bit of TV before bed.
