Working on my Rocky Road to Kansas top

Hi everyone, 

I decided to pull out another old UFO. I had made 21 of the Rocky Road to Kansas blocks several years ago. I had intended this to be a queen size quilt. But honestly, my heart wasn't in it anymore. So, a lap quilt it will be. 

I assembled all the blocks in a 4x5 arrangement. I have one block left. I will turn that into a matching throw pillow. I just need to come up with a border for this top. It feels good to have the blocks sewn together. I'm happy with my decision. Hope you like it!!

Nothing wrong with a lap quilt and better to have it finished. It's a terrific quilt.

Looks lovely. I think it's a great idea to turn it into a lap quilt plus pillow when your heart isn't in it. You can finish it up, enjoy it for what it is and move on to your next project!!

Scrap quilts are my favourites! This one is wonderful, and I'm looking forward to seeing your border decision.
