Off to Grandma’s House…

On my way home from GSing on Saturday I swung by the Cloth Castle to see if I could find some fabric for my Button Town Quilt.  And although I didn’t find the fabric, I did find this lovely little pattern…It’s called “Over the River and Through the Woods” by Crab-apple Hill.

I seem to be on a Grandma theme..I think it was the wooden sock dryer that was weighing on my mind..thinking of poor grandma washing grandpa’s socks.  He probably only owned two pairs..one to wear and one to wash.  And poor Grandma was stuck washing them…! 

 

So if and when I make this quilt…I think I’ll hang it on the wall and hang the sock dryer next to it as a salute to all the hardworking Grandma’s who paved the way for a cushier life for their grand-daughters…

So here is the the river and woods that I have to stitch…

…before I get to Grandma’s house!  Yikes!  Now that’s a lot of stitching!!

Here’s the pattern for the stitching~HUGE- 12 sheets of 11”X8.5”!  Yowzwers!  Grandma would be SEW proud!! 

AND on the quilting front~ my little churn dash family is growing…

I still don’t have a plan for them…a little quilt of some kind, I guess.  I DO love making these little blocks…stay tuned…

So have a marvelous Monday in your corner of the world and Happy Quilting!!
