One Small Finish for Haiti

Thank you for all of the kind comments on the airplane quilt. I found someone to hand quilt it and I am working on a pattern for the block.  It does feel good to be done with it but you will never believe that last night at 11pm I had inspiration to make another one--this time with different blocks....sometimes I get really sick of my quilt brain!

Last weekend I starting cutting a Trip Around the World quilt.  I was drawn to this pattern by this quilt and this quilt.  Both of these ladies are Michiganders and both support Margaret's Hope Chest--I am sure that those two facts have no connection to why I want to make this quilt--just giving a shout out.
I did absolutely no planning for this quilt--my daughter and I picked out the fabrics and then I started cutting 100's of 2.5 inch squares.  After a decade of quilting I have come to the conclusion that there are two types of quilters--the kind that plan out their quilts and kind that don't. Which type are you?  As a result of my reckless abandon I had (tons of) extra squares which I made into this baby quilt to add to the Haiti collection.  I am going to back it with flannel with no batting and straight-line quilt it. 



As for the larger twin size Trip Around the World quilt--it is coming along--I am on day 4 of piecing it.  Maybe this weekend I will finish it.
