Window Quilts in the Works

On Monday I mentioned the wall quilts I want to make for our bedroom windows (and who knows, maybe I’ll make them for the other rooms, too.

Anyway, I cut out lots of squares and rectangles for each of my kids to use.  Then, when they got home from school and finished their homework, I put them to work.

I set them each up at a table, handed them fabric, and told them to design their window quilts.

Here’s what they came up with:

First, Alex’s…

And then, Julia’s:

I love how different they are. 

Today I’m sewing the pieces together, and if I’m hoping to complete them tonight after work and/or tomorrow morning. 

I’ll keep you posted!  I’m pretty excited about them.
