    I haven't posted for a bit so I thought I'd share something. This is a patchwork blanket I made for a friend of mine using an old quilt. It's almost double bed sized and took me a day give or take...This is the biggest one I've made so far. I would have liked to quilt it but I was getting impatient and just wanted it finished!
