This week was fairly productive with the quilt retreat I had on Saturday. Before then, I finished my Sidekick tote (pics coming when it stops raining). I prepped a couple projects, and managed to almost finish a the Polkadotamus baby quilt top and complete 4 zipper pouches. I also worked on the applique for 2 of 6 blocks to finish Bonnie & Camille, and sewed together some pinks scraps for some “made” fabric.
Polkadotamus is the same pattern as Frilly, but with applique in the middle of the plain blocks. It’s a commission quilt for a friend’s new grand-niece or -nephew.
Then today, I got industrious and finished the final border for the Quilt of Valor I’ve been puttering on, and quilted and bound it.

Cute quilt, cute name. Appliqué is Raw edge? Turned? I need to go look at it on my desktop rather than my phone. And I love giraffes. The end.
Polkadotamusness is so cute! 1st, how in the world did you think of that most awesome name? I am so bad at naming my quilts. 2nd, I always feel weird about white in a baby quilt, did they request it or (as I have no children) do you find that it is no big deal?
Okayyyy, so my name is actually Alison (therefore the “G” because I didn’t want to be confused with the podcasting Alison). I guess I was posting too fast, seeing as I was at work…that’s what I get. You might remember me from the cherry pie incident, where I was given a whole pie as a thank you and was unsure what to do with it. You assured me that eating it was the best answer. I actually ate a chunk and gave the rest to those very fit people that work at my gym :-).
The quilt is more fun when you are lucky enough to see it in person. Great choice of fabrics. Saturday was productive and good fun.
Super cute baby quilt and I can see a lot of possibilities for future quilts.
