I am a quilter - a retired widow living in the Nebraska Panhandle. I am surrounded by beautiful semi-arid ranch country, and treeless hills and fields under incredibly wide blue skies, located far from the upheaval found often in large towns or cities. I am blessed to have delicious time to quilt and to appreciate my peaceful moments in an unpeaceful world.

Row x Row, kid's quilt
After receiving a box of scrap novelty fabrics, (yes, another!) I made this little Row x Row kids quilt. The rows were just plain fun to make up, but organizing them in a visually pleasing order was a whole 'nuther thing! And they didn't end up the way I had planned, nor in the "right" way, but ... some child will love it. Those are cats in the dark row, and birds in the 2 wide light rows. In the center are little 2 inch, fussy cut cat squares. (BTW, 2 in. is toooo small - don't go there.)
After eternally messing about with an almost-cohesively laid out order, I will give a LOT more credit to those designers who make BEAUTIFUL, balanced, Row x Row quilts.
Here is the back, also gifted fabric, all printed with holiday and season-type motifs, even a quilt block - CUTE! This will be donated to Hugs and Stitches Quilts, sponsored by my LQS.
