Beginning a New Quilt


Today I pressed and began to cut out fabric for Diego's quilt. However, I actually started working on it weeks ago. First I had to find Mario. After an exhaustive internet search, Dave and I found some Mario iron-on patches. Then came the design. After trying out a number of patterns on paper, I settled on a checker board with Mario on light squares alternating with dark squares. It took two trips to the fabric store in South Lyon to find just the right fabric - a light one for Mario, blue for the alternate squares, and red for an accent border. I think this one will be fun to work on.
