A quilt for Matthew



I should have finished this a year ago but... I took a vacation instead. It was about 8 months between slicing up all the 2" strips for a trio of "use what you've got" quilts and actually getting started on the blocks. Since I was using a lot of leftover fabric, it was a bit challenging to get the 2" strips - even with even seams - to turn into equal size blocks.

Lots of wiggle and putting the blocks together was tough. I'll have some ripples when I do the top quilting -- but the first challenge is going to be -- where in the heck do I put this thing together since I don't have enough floor space?
