I am kind of addicted to the quilt-as-you-go method. Thanks to whoever was the genius who figured it out....and thanks to all those who have posted tutorials on this simple quilting technique!

A Chevron Retro Travel Bag
liZ and I were talking the other day about how many "unfinished project" we have...and the list is getting long and sad. We were joking that we need to lock ourselves in a room for 2 days to even catch up (which would be so fun, as long as there were plenty of snacks).
