As you probably noticed…no Frugal Friday today.\u00a0 I just didn’t have time to get the post ready.\u00a0 My husband got back late last night with a car for our little Hannah.\u00a0 Alright, she’s not that little…she’s 16.\u00a0 But in my mind she’s still a baby.\u00a0 And we’ve been driving it around all afternoon.\u00a0 Frugal Friday will return next week.<\/p>\n

I’m proud to say that I officially finished my February goals for a Lovely Year of Finishes<\/a>!\u00a0 Woohoo.\u00a0\u00a0 The second quilt didn’t exactly turn out as I expected but hey, it happens.\u00a0 I can live with that.\u00a0 After all, not every quilt is going to be perfect.\u00a0 Heck, I don’t think any of them are ever perfect.\u00a0 That’s part of the fun of quilting.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

This is not my design but for the life of me I can’t remember the pattern and I pieced it several years ago.\u00a0 The pattern has been “put up” which means I have no idea where it is.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

You can see in this picture that I didn’t quilt the beige part.\u00a0 I was going to but then I got lazy.\u00a0 In reality, I wanted to get this one done so I could focus on the Texas Teardrops Quilt Along.\u00a0 My mind was just not in finishing this one.\u00a0 So, I did the bare minimum {there are no rules that say every square inch must be quilted} and called it good.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

I love the backing.\u00a0 It’s a Hoffman Fabrics batik.\u00a0 Oh so pretty.<\/p>\n

And one crooked picture just because.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

I’m glad I finished my February goals.\u00a0 Now I can focus on the Texas Teardrops Quilt Along.\u00a0 I’m super excited to get it started.\u00a0 I hope lots of you will join in the fun.\u00a0 I think mom and I finally have the templates lined out after two full days of emailing back and forth.\u00a0 Everything is falling into place.\u00a0 Yay!<\/p>\n

I hope you all have a great weekend!
