Handled 3 times in 3 hours!!

Not me, sadly ;( but this bundle of fabric loveliness which is going to be turned into a lapquilt (60" x 60") for my dear cousin, June ('USA #5' - the last of the series from great-Aunt Jenny's stash):



1) Hand washed:


Not a great looking sky but I'm optimistic the rain will stay away just long enough to get it all dried:

2) Dried:



3) Ironed and ready to pick from:

I love playing with my great-Aunt's fabric, especially when I come across a piece she cut from ... I wonder where this little square ended up?


and she had some lovely fabrics - I get to pick from some really big pieces and some scrappy ones too:


And now the exciting part begins: lots and lots to choose from but what's the best pattern to showcase these treasures???

What fun :)
