The Y2KQ repro
Well, it's coming right along. I decided to reproduce my Y2K quilt in 1" squares (finished size). I sew in blocks of 5x5 squares and sew 8 blocks together for each row. There will be 10 rows total with only one row left to go.Laying out the fabs is the slowest part. Stitching goes pretty fast.
Gotta keep sewin'! I may get this done yet!
Sorry about the side-ways photo...sometimes my photos flip when I upload them.
In the small photo you can see that I've included my daughter in this quilt...that's what she looked like about 35 years ago!
Looking forward to getting this done and trying to figure out how to quilt it? Probably by machine...probably with a light batt.

The one inch square with your blonde daughter in pigtails is absolutely precious. I'm sure she'll be honored to be included in her quilt in such a darling way. :-)

I love it! Not sure that I'd ever be as ambitious as you are, though.

I am looking forward to seeing this finished. You are much more ambitious than I am -- and I love the little girl in there!

My digital camera pics sometimes flip too--very aggravating. Found out this is because you have your camera set at automatic rotate. If you undo that setting, your pics will stay in the direction you take them.
