This one went together quicker and easier than the first. I think it is going to be my favorite. I made up the pattern based on something similar seen on Pinterest.
The top is done but still has to be quilted. I did something today that I enjoyed. Mended a hole in some favorite Loft jeans. They were the 'ripped' style and at my age, I really don't like seeing my white knee sticking through the jeans when I bend my knee. After doing my little random stitching on them, I happened to look on Instagram and found some amazing menders. They seem to use Sashiko cotton thread. It appears thicker, so I went to Etsy and ordered some. Going to use it for future jeans mending.
And this picture just made me laugh.....my home is full of toys now with the grandkids living here. That is going to change in a month or so, as they have decided to move into a condo close by that belongs to another family member. It will be good for them to have their own place, as much as we have enjoyed having them with us the last 7 months.
Nothing like a crocodile crawling out of your bathtub!
