play school quilt

i've got a new quilt over @ the bake shop today!






oh & i was asked once how i hang my quilts on the fence.
this is how... binder clips... specifically my vera bradley ones work best.

i've been having lots of fun playing with the canon rebel my brother lent me with a 50 f/1.8
still have lots to learn... but it's fun!

Love that quilt. And especially the letters that look like they have little borders!

I have the same camera, but I'm not very good at using it! It does take practice.

I really like this quilt! The letters are great. I like that you also told us how we can make 3 of these from jelly roll and layer cake. Makes life easier and uses up all the extras. :)
