A Little Practice

With my guild's upcoming exhibit just a month away, I have plenty of serious quilting to get done and no time to waste, but because it's been so long since I have actually done any sewing, I thought it would be a good idea to warm up on a practice quilt before tackling my exhibit quilts. These plaid squares are part of a very simple pattern that will go together quickly and eventually become a charity quilt...the perfect practice piece!

Very special reason for a practice quilt, a lucky person will truly appreciate your feeling of needing to practice and your Guild will also admire your handiwork! Have a wonderful week!
