Happy New Year 2012

UFO Challenge begins....
Hooray!  Item #5  Labor Day Madness--Pat Speth came to our guild in March 2011 and taught the class called "Combination Units".  Pat Speth and Charlene Thode co-authored the book called Nickel Quilts.  For years, I avoided any pattern that had partial seams.  What a silly I was!  Once you learn the technique it is really quite simple.  The instructions are listed on page 80 of the book.  15 blocks are completed.  To make the lap size quilt, I need 16 blocks.  I also need to decide on a lay-out by either going with the design in the book or choosing from 2 possible lay-outs that I have found in recent quilt magazines.  Maybe as I am making the 16th blocks, I can decide.
