LUCKY!

I started with this pile a few days ago - bits and pieces left over from previous quilts. 



A little freeform patchwork later (is that the correct term?) I came up with this...



Here's a sneak peak of the finished quilt.  Notice the spool of thread.  That's all I had left after the quilting.  I feel like I'm constantly running to one fabric store or another (not that we have tons to choose from here in Vancouver).  I was determined to start and finish ONE QUILT without having to make a trip to the store.  I knew I wanted to use gray thread but only had one (new) small spool.  Off I went with fingers crossed (well, toes actually) and breath held!  Talk about cutting it close.  Just working on the binding (also with fabric from my stash) so will post a picture later of the finished quilt.
