Dream Vacations, Phase II

In 2003 the Quilt Etc BOM was a row quilt. There was a single pattern for a 6” finished block each month, and participants were to make four of each block. I don’t remember all of the blocks, but there was a maple leaf, a monkey wrench, a darling little house, a friendship star, a  log cabin and a Valentine heart. I didn’t actually attend the class that year, but my mother did. I thought her finished quilt – in solids and near-solids and charming “farmhouse” colors – was adorable. It’s why I did attend the monthly class the following year. And I’ve been quilting along with them ever since. Later on this morning I’ll bring this wall hanging (it might actually be a large table topper) in for show-and-tell. Then I’ll get to see the first block in this year’s series. I can hardly wait!
