Checkerboard Rails Update

I stated in a previous post that I wanted to use up some of my hand dyed fabric, and I chose Bonnie Hunter’s Checkerboard Rails pattern to do it.

I had gotten this far:

Rail Fence

Since then, I have made 142 blocks (assuming I counted right).

Layout has begun!

I can’t show the entire layout, since my wall space isn’t big enough, but you get the idea where I am going with this.

Have fun and carry on!

Bowl Cozies, a Potato Bag, and a Rail Fence

I have made bowl cozies before, but they were all given away as gifts.

It is nearly chili and soup weather!

When the Hubster figured out that I was making bowl cozies, he got excited.

We are going to be using these!

I have also made potato bags and given them away.

I needed another for a quick gift and it sure doesn’t take long to make these!

One of the things that I wanted to do this year was use up some of my hand dyes.

I have chosen Bonnie Hunter’s Checkerboard Rails pattern to help me out.

Rail Fence

This is very easy sewing and I think I have enough rail fence blocks made for a good-sized quilt.

I do need to make more four patches and then I will lay this out and see if I have enough.

The quilt size is 77″ x 94″…plenty to snuggle under!

I have washed it so that I could have the texture from the quilting.

The back is pieced and the quilting shows up nicely.
