I was introduced to pin quilts by my SIL Paula on our 2003 Hawaii trip. She's made them for her girls since pins are a great way to remember trips and special places. Pins take up very little room, something that I've been trying to gain. Kyle receives pins for most holidays from our nieces and wanted a way to display them. I finally got around to making him a pin quilt, now he has to gather them up and pin them on!
Close ups of the blocks, and yes they aren't centered. I made it that way. Seriously.
Hey what a great idea! Now I could get all those Pins out of my junk drawers, off the bulletin boards and all the other lost world places! :) Thanks for showing that!
I am a 30-something dental hygienist living in MN with my Weimaraner Casey, and missing my Boxer Flea. My husband Kyle is my best friend. I drive a 10 year old truck and a 9 year old motorcycle. My brother is currently serving in the US Air Force stationed in New Mexico. I love Rice Krispie bars, all things Tangerine/Mandarin Orange and Pistachio, Peanut M&M's, caramel, Jelly Bellys, comfortable shoes, cowboy/rodeo fabric, warm blankets, handmade quilts, soft pillows, really good chocolate and lazy days. I dislike litterbugs, dry hands, burned popcorn, slow drivers, below zero days and poor service & dirty silverware at restaurants. I'm currently enjoying my new Android phone, working on my UFO's and reading Recalculating on my nook.
I'm looking forward to Christmas!
