Candy Coated

A friend ask if I would help make quilts for a family who recently were burnt out of their home. As every quilter would, I agreed, and then headed for my scrap bag.


I found just a few scraps that I thought would work for a ten year old girl.


I cut and slashed the pile into manageable sizes, pulled out my Sunday Morning Quilt, and got to work.


I threw a little thread at the quilt!


And here it is.  "Candy Coated" ready to go.

I'm linking to finish it up friday hosted by Amanda Jean, one of the authors of the Sunday Morning Quilts book.
