Here's quilt number two from Christmas. I haven't shown number one yet, but this one had pictures ready to go. I made my sister this little bitty quilt. It's a checkerboard game for her classroom. There's a lot of winter indoor recess in northern Indiana.
My dad helped me cut out the little wooden disc for the checkers. I painted them up to match.
I picked up this fabric in July, but hadn't decided what to do with it. I was saving it for the right project.
The back fabric is yellow from Bee's curtains in her nursery. I've been saving it too. I save too much. I think it's genetic.
I linked up to some of these fine parties:

LOVE this! So beautifully made, as are all your creations. Well done! This reminded me that I've seen smaller versions of these used in Montessori classroom as a part of a math learning game.
Looks great. glad that it came out so nice.
Love Always,
Dad
Yes, we all know why you save things but the nice part is you do find a use for everything. My saved things just gather dust and take up space.
I love this idea! The fabric is adorable, and I love the game pieces. I'm a saver, too. It kills me to cut into a beautiful piece of fabric:)
