When I moved and downsized, I got rid of a lot of things that were 1/2 finished, but kept every single one of my unfinished quilts. I just do not find time to work on them anymore. I actually got more of that sort of thing done when some of the kids were younger--they would get sick, etc., and I would stay home with them and I did not work very many hours outside of the home then, either. So, I know I will get back to some of them in the future.Beckyathomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11105835394158145451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092713395548533988.post-76728999676864314092017-08-29T19:32:52.881-04:002017-08-29T19:32:52.881-04:00Well done, the quilt is timeless; I am inspired by...Well done, the quilt is timeless; I am inspired by your thrift and your perseverance in seeing this one through to the end. I don't know about right or wrong side of gingham; I am guessing if it's that hard to tell there is no right or wrong side!

That's a darling quilt! And I adore the idea of using a quilted bedspread, how awesomely clever of you. You're going to have me at the thrift shop very soon, lol, I need to copy that! And don't worry about the gingham.<br /><br />Sweet that your son was named Teacher of the Year! I always wanted to be a teacher too, and sort of got my dream while I homeschooled, lol.....I had a BLAST.Allie-oops Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10356598486121651755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092713395548533988.post-8084732290547700662017-08-23T14:45:11.038-04:002017-08-23T14:45:11.038-04:00Oh!

Now I wish I had some of those projects I donated.<br />I played teacher every day when I was young. The neighborhood kids were my students. What a fun time. I wanted to grow up to be a teacher but life got in the way. I did teach facets of quiltmaking though.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816001950084090576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092713395548533988.post-91641170155371824392017-08-23T02:03:48.329-04:002017-08-23T02:03:48.329-04:00BEAUTIFUL quilt.

Its a special quilt with the story behind it.<br /><br />That's wonderful that your son was teacher of the year.
