This one was easy & quick

As many of you have seen lately with the amount of postings I do, that I have numerous addictions (quilting & blogging to name a few). But yesterday while hubby was outside papering windows and spray painting the trim on the house, I sat down and quilted. I am so proud of myself, because I have actually completed 2 projects in 2 days.

I finally realized that God wants me to make quilts. No, I may not be the best quilter in blog land and I know I am not the best in the world, but it doesn't matter to God, what matters is that I am doing something I love to help others less fortunate than my family.

So, I made this little house quilt as a gift and you know what? I had fun and I relaxed a bit!
I made it with vintage fabric that I have been hanging onto for several years now. I just love this very pale mint green with the greenish blue roses on it, it is soft and really adds a nice touch to the house!

I also (shhh, don't tell the quilt police) probably didn't use 1/4" seams. I sew with my heart & it the seam is a bit bigger, I am not going to fret over it. Besides, does it really matter in the big scheme of things?

I am sure the person that receives this isn't going to send me the following letter:

Dear Jean:
I received your quilt today and was so excited until I noticed you didn't use 1/4" seams when making this piece. Enclosed is the fabric and batting so you can re-quilt this and send it back to me.

Yeah Right! So, sew with your heart and unless you are using your quilt for a show & even then I really don't think it should matter. But hey! I'm just the newbie in quilting!
