I think I got it backwards. I think I was supposed to do the intricate, take a lot of time quilt for Holly and then simplify with each child, not the other way around. Yet here I am, making a quilt that requires more trimming than I anticipated. It's a miracle that I haven't trimmed it away! After the work I've done today and tonight, I have 64 blocks that are each 3.25" square. I'll be dreaming in rotary mat green! Did I mention that I plan on hand quilting this bad boy? Maybe I'm insane.
Here's some perhaps more exciting news: the drywall in the nursery is getting patched tomorrow! After that we'll have baseboards to fix, walls to paint and carpet to install. And then, I get to decorate a little girls' room! Hip hip hooray! I'm very, very excited.
