Time Travel Tuesday

My Red Galoshes


Here's another blast from the past.  It came about as a Paint Chip Challenge quilt.  At our local quilt shop, the each participant drew 4 paint chips from a paint can.  They laid their chips in a row and wondered for a few moments how to make these 4 colors coordinate.  Then, with some shopping advice from the owner, they found a set of fabrics for their challenge quilt.

I didn't take a photo of the paint chips, but here's the quilt I made.  I gave it away as a baby quilt after the challenge.  For fun, I wrote a short poem about this zebra dancing in the rain, but I didn't preserve the poem either. (Guess I'm learning a lesson about how little space it takes to save digital items.)

My current works in progress are a surprise for an upcoming quilting retreat.  I'll be able to share them at the end of this month.

Enjoy your day!
