Jelly and Quilts

Hard to believe but these last few nights have been hotter than usual and I’ve been beavering away trying to finish a summer quilt I started a couple of months ago. Its a thin wadding not sure of the tog rating but lighter than our ordinary summer quilt. I wanted a fairly utilitarian design – quick to cut, sew and quilt, which I did with my trusty machine. Thank god I changed my mind about hand quilting.
