I Like Thursday # 156 ~ 10 Quilts ~ Day 3

10 Quilts ~ 10 Days ~ Day 3

This is my

Batik Layer Cake Quilt for My Guy

It replaced an old worn out utility quilt made with scrap blocks 

and fabrics from an older batik quilt project. 

One day he brought the utility quilt that had been taken camping 

and lived in his car inside and it became his favorite indoor quilt. 

I repaired it a few times and he still has it 

but it is smaller and not as warm as this newer quilt.  

Now the kitties nest in the smaller quilt.

Today is also

I Like Thursday @ Not Afraid of Color 

For our post this week, LeeAnna has asked us to blog about

the things we do to show our love.

This is what I do:  I make quilts.

This one was for my best friend and husband,

who shows his love for all of us everyday and every way. 

I make quilts not only for people I know. 

I have made many quilts and blocks over the years to send them off to others 

in hope of making the world a little warmer and friendlier and full of love. 

This is an easy layer cake pattern, 

which Started Designing Here

All of the blocks were made with this size pieces.

Most were cut from 10 inch squares and some from scraps and strips in my stash.

In the end I made 11 different block layouts with these cuts

and scattered them randomly in my layout.

This is the finished quilt.

Mr. Scrapatch loves and uses his quilt everyday.

The kitties love it, too.

For me, quilts are love.

I find I am very much enjoying this 10 day walk down memory lane

 and revisiting some of past quilty accomplishments. 

Please share your love by sharing a quilt in my linky party:
