Building a bed -
Im trying to make things from salvaged wood. I used dumpster doors to make this bed. Its not finished yet - but - its still pretty good.

My way. 4 patch.
I made enough 4 patch blocks to make two quilts. The second one needed to be mine. I made the first one to look like the one in the book. Why do that? Awhile ago I bought some fabric with roses on it that I was in love with but was afraid to use. I decided it was time. Here is how it came out - What do you think? Does the floral overpower the blocks? Is that a bad thing (if it does)? For me, the blend is perfect. I am dreaming about the bed on the porch of my childhood camp. It was iron and sometimes had a hornets nest somewhere inside. That is the truth! But, it was on a screen porch near the lake. I loved it there. And, this quilt is now part of the memory even though it never was. Here is the first quilt.
Red and White Star Quilt -
I made this quilt from about a 50 % blend of recycled and new fabrics. It is a queen size with a 100% cotton batting. And, the Dog - is my George.
George seems VERY happy with the new bed!
ReplyDeleteGeorge and I have been outside so much this summer. He is finally old enough that he will sniff around the yard and slep in the sun - rather than run down the street to chase cats! Hope you are well!
