More Purple

Happy Tuesday!

At this rate, I will have the squares done for this quilt by the end of the week.  I haven't decided what size I am going to make yet but I am having fun putting pieces together without stressing if they are "just right." 





There is nothing like thinking that you have all the purple scraps and turning around and finding more! It was really exciting!  I am liking the wonky-ness (is that a word?) of the squares!

My goal for this quilt is to try to machine quilt it with my cheap machine.  I did one a while back and it was a mess but according to other blogs, it takes practice!

On another note -  My niece received her birthday blanket last night (I couldn't wait so she got it early!

It was really different for me to use this color and combo - however, my sister-in-law picked it out and by the time it was finished, I was in love with it!  I am hoping to make my niece a baby blanket for her doll to go with it... We shall see!

This blanket also used over one package of satin binding - I had never combined two together so I looked at a lot of tutorials.  I am really happy with the finished product and have decided that I have the patience to make more of these!
