A few pictures--

Karsen   
Karsen is Lorri2Rs grandson, he came along to sew on Saturday.  He was busy putting together the Lego Model on the table behind him.  He also sewed a pillowcase to match his new quilt Lorri2Rs made him.


A quilt with Karsen's name and made in his school's colors!    LaVonne is Karsen's great grandmother and she is one of the Iowa Sweat Shop Ladies.

Vivian had a new ruler/method for making perfect points with no Y seams.  Check them out!

Where does pyramid come from for your quilt name? I have a similar quilt I'm working on but just one square rather than the four patch. I think it's called Matchstick Marimba.

Glad you are enjoying grandma duty.

I love your version of Bricks and Stepping Stones. The bright colors are great.

Great finish! I love those black & white four-patches with the bright fabrics.
