This is my cute cousin Lindsey.
When life is challenging and you really aren't sure how to handle it; you should quilt. I don't care if you are an expert quilter, or you have never made a quilt before in your life. I have watched quilts make someone happy, bring them comfort, and make them feel loved. Making quilts does that same thing. Lindsey decided to make this quilt for her mom. She chose a pattern out of a book called "Two From One Jelly Roll Quilts" by Pan and Nicky Lintott. I love this book! They have such fun patterns for Jelly Rolls. By the way, I rarely buy jelly rolls, I usually cut my own. Lindsey used green, orange, and cream to be able to make the zig-zag pattern. She then put an 8" border of brown around the edge. We had some extra pieces, and decided to incorporate them into the back. There were some puckers and holes that we had to fix, but she did a great job for her first quilt!!
