I did it, I got it done with 24 hours to go phew!!!!!!!
Well here's the blocks I used, six if them
Three Ohio stars & three Churn dash, quite challenging I have to say
& definitely not perfect by any stretch of the imagination....
So I decided to make a skirt for Ella with these wee cutie sewn in...

She's real happy with it, will have to get a cute top to match though!!
I used a cut off pair of jeans for the top section
And finished it off with some ric rac trim, my all time favorite, goes with
just about anything.
I'm happy to have it done so I'm off now to submit it,
then its time to sit & enjoy Stargate the movie with Ella & her twin friends Sophia & Noah.
Wish me luck
Lots of Love

Great work Karen, you must have gone into warp factor to get all that done! Worth it though, that quilt is gorgeous and the skirt is absolutely adorable anything with ric rac is a winner in my book!

ReplyDeleteI am so in love with this. The Ruby and the rickrack and everything just make it perfect! Great job!
ReplyDeleteLovely skirt...it's got me thinking about what I could do with a my daughter's denim skirt that still fits her round the waist but is too short.....thanks for the inspiration!
