TexasRed Quilts

http://www.texasredquilts.com/

I started amigurumi after seeing Chris at book-a-rama's Love Birds. Finding out that yarn companies have free patterns just adds fuel to the fire.

From TexasRed Quilts, 1 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

For the eighth block of the p.s. i quilt pinwheel quilt along, Rachel wanted us to make our own pinwheel block so that each quilt would be different.
