"Jersey Girl"

     Yes, I'm a "Jersey" girl born and bred!   As much as I'd have loved to move a couple of times just for a change of scenery, as I get older I'm thinking I'd prefer to stay put.

     So, that said, I saw "Jersey Girl" the pattern from "Schnibbles" by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. and decided I needed to get the pattern and start it after New Years.   It did have a second "hook"....it was done in reds and neutrals!  Coincidentally, my stash is overrun with reds and one of my BFF's gave me a nice bundle of neutrals for Christmas to add to my own stash.

I did have a little lucky break too with cutting for this project, I had started a project last April that I'd never finished so I decided in a cleaning frenzy to un-kit it and use the hst's for this project.  I wanted this one more so voile', 76 hst's already to go!


I'm going to continue cutting and making hst's and with luck this project is done this week.

It's going to be a great quilt! Jersey Girl can't miss, after a lifetime here, t's my only desire for where to be as well.
