New obsession

I've got a new obsession: quilting! I always said I'd never quilt, I don't have the patience for it, well, I was wrong (don't tell my husband I said that). I've got quilts flying through my head pretty much all the time! I'm going to have to find a notebook to write them all down in (maybe one of those covered composition books I made way back when). This quilt is the first one I've made start to finish that's actually big enough to cozy up under. I made a couple of smaller ones to practice but the only one who could snuggle under those is my daughter's baby doll. This one is called a sudoku quilt. You use a finished sudoku puzzle for the layout. I found the concept on the blog for my local quilt store (www.sewflakesfabrics.com). Eight of the fabrics used in the blocks came from a fat quarter super stack that I purchased at Walmart. The ninth fabric as well as the fabrics for the sashing and the border came from my stash.
