I have been working on another quilt lately. I have had all these amazing extra pieces of fabric and things at work have been slow this month so I have some extra time on my hands. Plus I started this quilt before I moved to Cambodia three years ago...so I think it is time I start finishing it up :) It started with the extra fabric from the quilt I made for my niece when she was a baby (she is now almost 6) and another quilt I made for a friend. I had bought a few new piece as I need to make 75 squares and I don't think I have enough extra fabric for that many :) But I am having fun mixing and matching!

I have 11 squares done, 64 to go :) It is nice not having a dead-line and I can simply enjoy sewing and putting all the colors together. Not sure what I will do with the quilt when I am done but my goal is to do everything with this quilt. This would include putting all the layers together and quilting it, adding the binding, and putting on a label. I have done the label before and understand how to do the quilting and binding but haven't really done it before.
I also need to get the quilt done because I have three more I know I want to make and have the fabric already for two of the quilts. I brought back fabric from Cambodia and am excited about getting started on that one! Plus I have a friend who is having a baby and will be making another baby quilt for her :) Good thing I enjoy sewing!
