One corner has a little raised bit for a child to play with. I totally did that on purpose. It's about 2x3 feet. Maybe.

Strawberry mouse flannel quilts
There are two of these, they are about a yard square. I had not quite enough of the dull red for the backing, went to Joanns to get more, didn't take the original with me, got the wrong shade, so one has a much brighter red backing than the other.
Flannel deer quilt
This quilt is about... 4x4 feet maybe? For something that was just using up the deer flannel I randomly bought, it took a long time and lots of redoing. Mostly because I measured the small green and brown strips wrong.

T-shirt dresses
I finished off a couple more knit skirts attached to t-shirts. This finishes this project and I'm going back to work on some quilts, while I think about trying some more ambitious clothing projects.

Orange flowered triangles lap quilt
The finished quilt is lightly larger than the top of a card table. It was donated to the library as a prize.
I made a smaller set of this, realized I'd left out a strip, then decided to keep going and make it a little bigger. This is the first part, just fits on a card table. Then I sewed a couple hundred more squares together, then realized they were in the wrong order, put a few more rows on and called it quits.
Flowered squares
This is an improvement on the previous, over-purpled blocks. I used different shades of the same fabric and made them larger, using 6" squares.
