Scrap-Happy February 2021

 In early February I had to travel to Phoenix because of my mother's health, and ultimate passing on the 5th.   Travel yet to come to Tennessee for her burial and then ultimately returning home the end of the month.   Had sorta planned ahead when packing quickly and put my machine and supplies into the car with me in case I had a few minutes to sew for sanity with all that is going on and all I have to do while here.

Did have time to get this scrappy top together.   All of the blocks are from scraps, border was a bolt-end from the stash, bought several yrs ago while I was going to grad school in Indiana.  The finished quilt will be bound in the same fabric as the setting triangles.

it's approximately 40" by 60" in size.

    Wow that seems like a long time ago - Indiana. The top looks wonderful. All the colors scattered around so nicely. I'm looking forward to seeing you Tuesday for a little bit. I know there are a lot of family things going on.

    So sorry for your loss, losing your Mom is difficult enough without the extra difficulties of these times. Can't believe that you managed to do such detailed, beautiful work at such a time. well done.
