What I'm Working On Right Now

Last week I was invited to a baby shower. Not having a gift ready, I wrote in a card, "IOU a baby quilt". I asked the new mom what colours she liked or didn't like, she said anything would be ok. I had an idea to use bright prints on a white background. I looked in books and on the internet for a pattern, then found one that looked interesting. My next post will have the name and source of the pattern. I'm waiting for a new washing machine to arrive, my old one died and flooded all over the floor. The quilt should be washed with colour catcher sheets when it's completed to make sure the colours don't bleed into the white fabric.
