I found a small quilt top of pastel blocks with flowers embroidered on them, surrounded by a wide border of blue-and-white gingham. Both materials are very lightweight, and the top looks to have been intended for a baby quilt. The borders are a little wonky, so I may try to re-do some seams and straighten that up a bit before quilting it.

Thrift Store Find
While making a trek through the thrift store today (hey, I was out on errands, might as well see what's there), I found something that needed a home. Something that needed a quilter's touch.
I found a small quilt top of pastel blocks with flowers embroidered on them, surrounded by a wide border of blue-and-white gingham. Both materials are very lightweight, and the top looks to have been intended for a baby quilt. The borders are a little wonky, so I may try to re-do some seams and straighten that up a bit before quilting it.
