This is for one of the quilts for the Sandy Hook families. You may not know, but we live one town away and visit Newtown quite regularly. The Blue Colony Diner is our favorite place and all the baking is done on site. Their challah bread is amazing and we always pick up a loaf for Sunday morning french toast. Yum! So if you're ever traveling on I84 through Connecticut, make sure you get off Exit 10 for a delicious meal. Anytime of day or night, you won't be sorry! Okay - advertising off!
Anyway, back to the quilt square. The organizer asked for no child's name be put on the squares, but I did sign up for one little boy in particular. His family and ours have mutual friends, so I wanted to stitch something special.
I just love the book this chart came from and I've stitched it before (for COLES quilts) and plan to stitch it again (and again, and again!).
I've got a few days off next week to coincide with R4's spring break at school. I'm planning on tackling some finishing work and maybe even clean up the old craft room a bit. Wish me luck!
