The wind died down and, except for a couple of ominous flickers, the power stayed on. Thanks to everyone who reminded me to fill the tub. I do that when it snows or gets icy, but I totally forgot about that Saturday when I was vacuuming the carpet and doing the laundry and dishes. It's so much easier to flush the toilet with water from the tub than to haul buckets from the stream! Maybe I need to make myself a "looks like we might lost power" checklist...
In addition to all of my (happily) unnecessary storm prep, I added borders to a baby top left over from last year and got this little top put together.
The pattern is Dancing Nines and it's from Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville. I cut 2 1/2" square for my baby quilts, so I adjusted the sashing to go with the pieces I already had. One of these days, I want to make one of these for myself with 2" squares.
I'm linking up to Design Wall Monday at Patchwork Times.
Glad you weathered the storm without incident!!
ReplyDeleteCute top! I like the white with all the bright colors.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute baby quilt! I will have to look into this pattern. And out of 2" squares would be really nice, too.
ReplyDeleteDancing 9's is fun! I like the plain white sashes.
ReplyDeleteI love the way the sashing moves in this quilt. I've been wanting to make one and now I want to even more. Love the white with the brights.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute little baby quilt and so easy too. I have a 9 patch leader/ender stack going too (all pastels.) I may have to stop and make a baby uilt with them now that I'm reminded of how cute they look.
