A Simple Quilt Pattern

 Just had to share these that I spotted on Facebook.

 Don't think Wilson would believe me if I said that.

 I couldn't believe this and as they say ... a picture is worth

a thousand words.  The only fabric on the carpet

and Julep decided to sleep on it.

 While scrolling through Pinterest I saw a simple quilt but

when I went to look for cutting directions there was none.

To be honest I really didn't need step-by-step instructions 

so I drew out the layout, pulled out a jelly roll and sat

down at my sewing machine.

I'm calling this my crazy dog quilt. 

Step 1: Sew six strip together and press seams to one side.

 I love pressing on my felted wool pad.

Step 2:  Cut the end off the row to make it even

 then measure in 12-1/2" and cut.

Step 3:  Measure in 29" and cut.

There is hardly any waste of fabric with this pattern.

As you can see the 12-1/2" block is vertical in the upper

left hand corner then the 29" horizontal goes next to that.

 Super easy with no seams to match up.  The pattern

is a great way to use up a jelly roll or leftover 

random strips from other projects.  I just started

another quilt like this using Xmas fabric.

Woof-Woof

Update on Derby:  our little boy is doing better but still sleeping

a lot which is probably due to the pain pills.
