Change Pad

Date:  2006

Reason:  I wanted a pad that I could change diapers on.  I wanted something warm and easily washable.

Fabrics:  I used leftover sweater fabric from the previous post (used inside out for softness) and denim from my very large collection.

Thoughts:  I modeled this after "Chinese Coins" but it obviously isn't done correctly.  Note to self to do a 'real' Chinese coins some day!

I wasn't concerned about making this square.  As you can see, I didn't even try.

Six years later, I am about to retire this pad as it is not needed anymore.  I'm feeling a little sentimental about that.

My beloved grandmother enjoys creating more blocks than she needs for a project.  She then gives many of them to me for me to play with.  I made this wall hanging from the first such care package to go in my sewing / spare bedroom.  It matches the blue Storm at Sea she gave me for my birthday several years ago.

Thank You

Reason:  I wanted to say thank you to someone for the help they provided to my husband.

Best Buys:  I got the burgundy from our local MCC thrift store.  It was a large piece for only $3.
