When a friend asked if I could help out her friend with getting a baby quilt for her first grandbaby made out of her wedding dress, I was definitely interested! I have thought about making a crazy quilt from my wedding dress, and other fabrics, for a monochromatic white/cream/tan quilt but I haven’t gotten my butt in gear on that project yet. But since I’ve worked with slippery fabrics before and thought I could do a pretty good job of this project, I agreed.
And it turned out great! The parents had just found out they were having a baby boy and the new grandma was ecstatic — we decided on a simple block design of just squares, rectangles and triangles and I found several blue fabrics that would go with the bedding that the mom-to-be had picked out. What a fun project!
Next project to tackle — an auction quilt for a friend who is having a heart transplant soon. His family is holding a benefit to help with expenses and he asked if I could possibly “make a little something quilty”. For you, Shawn, definitely. 
Of course, this means Geoff’s quilt will have to be next. He’s been less than patient about me making quilts for everyone else and not diving in to the quilt he designed for me. lol. That might have something to do with the fact that the quilt he designed is going to be an absolute bear to make! I’ve been making other people easy quilts. Or quilts I’ve been getting paid for. Not gigantic art quilts that will probably take me at least a year to make.
Come to think of it, I think I’ll have to clean up my sewing room first so I can find all the bits of fabric I’ve already bought for it and do some tests to see what’s going tobe the best technique for it. Recently I found a book on Molas in the library that I’m fascinated by. I think Geoff’s project might look very interesting with some reverse applique in it. I could definitely take the project in a more primative direction. Could be very interesting.
