I keep one folded up on the backs of my two favorite seats to place over my lap when I’m feeling chilled. Plus they are the perfect size for travel. Storing your orphan blocks in a designated suitcase is genius. Mine are all over the place! Try as I might, I can’t keep organized. I love what you’ve been building and feel so inspired every time you post a new finish.KaHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02528677007819875856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1648491809254365804.post-41816619012395591492019-09-28T23:04:35.643-07:002019-09-28T23:04:35.643-07:00I just hate losing stuff, I hope it shows up soon!...I just hate losing stuff, I hope it shows up soon!

Sounds like you keep a supply of baby quilts on hand for gifting. That's a great idea. What size do you like for baby quilts? In the past I have usually made quilts in the size you prefer but recently made some in the 42 x 54 size and found I really like the smaller lap size. They are definitely quicker.

You knocked this one out of the park. It's inspiring how you reach into your bag of tricks and then come up with something like this!

Making the small quilts is a great idea and you can probably use more offense that way and saving up for a big quilt. Happy quilting!!

The orange one turned out beautifully. My favorite one so far is the red, white and blue one. I'm a big fan of purple, so I'm looking forward to seeing what you do those left overs.
