July Schnibble Quilt

For July, we could choose any pattern from the Schnibble line to make. I chose to make Betsy. This is an older pattern. I borrowed the image from the Fat Quarter Shop.

 This pattern came out in 2008 o I'm sure lots of people have already made it. I choose to make it out of scraps of patriotic fabrics. I thought this was appropriate for the month of July. It is also in honor of two of my son's friends who are Marines. 




The grass always makes the quilts look wavy. Oh well.. At least you get an idea of what it looks like. Can't wait to see the parade on Wednesday of what everyone decided to make and to see what the pattern for August is. Visit  Sinta or Sherri to see the parade of Schnibbles.

As of now, I have no job for the upcoming year. I lost my job due to low enrollment. The school I was at is now done to 35 students. This maybe the last Scnibble I can make. We'll see if the budget can stretch to add a new pattern and charm packs plus background fabric for the next 5 months.
