I hosted a baggie swap for the third (or 4th) time last year. Members of the group exchanged squishies of fabrics and embellishments and each person made something from the bag they received and then it was returned to the original owner. Kerri was very patient and gave me time to finish so I hope she likes it. I thought she deserves something special for all her patience and all the cool crazy quilts she shares from eBay!

The other side of the tote. The other side started out as my favorite but then the purple hijacked me and took over.

Roomie Block for Omaha Crazy Quilt

Each year a group of us share a room at the Crazy Quilt Retreat in Omaha. There is an auction for which we each make a block that goes into a crazyquilt that is auctioned off for ACS and for scholarships to the retreat. Kate pieces the blocks and sends them to us to embellish. This was my block!
