Wow, Ellen, you're so prolific! Do you ever make quilts for fun, for yourself or family anymore?

I haven’t made one for me since this one last year....
doing lots and lots of charity right now. I’m not teaching, so no need to make samples. Using up stuff....

That's stunning! :)
I prefer to work on my own stuff. Being able to use fabric and colors that I really enjoy to make something for someone I love is what makes me happy :D

well I'm back to t-shirt quilts. Making 3 for a coworker who has been saying she wanted one for at least 5 years. She finally got the shirts organized, one for her daughter who is special needs, one who is in a sorority, and one for her with Pier 1 shirts. And I'm doing 3 other Pier 1 quilts as gifts. so that's 6. I'm getting pretty good at this. And fortunately the interfacing I use seems to be back in stock, JoAnn's isn't limiting quantity any more. So I bought a 30 yd bolt in white and a 20 yd bolt in black. It takes about 5-7 yards per quilt so that should be enough for this batch.
I'm also thinking of making a lap quilt for daughter out of some fabrics I got from a friend who is cleaning out her stash. I wanted some of the reds but she was selling in batches so had to take these homespuns too. Any suggestions on a pattern for those stripes & plaids?

I love your hen house chicks! I see that fox lurking on the pattern. This is a fun one.

Sounds like you are going to be really busy! One t-shirt quilt is a lot of work.................6 is a ton of work! You have a ton of great tools to make it all go much faster so I am sure that you will be cranking those out in no time.
Maybe go look on pintrest for red plaid quilts, or just plaid quilts for some ideas.
