3985 - Measure Twice, Cut Once
Lisa Briggs
New River, AZ USA
Width: 11.25" Length: 7"
Designer: Modified “Carpenter's Square” block by Marcia Hohn from Quilterscache.com. Used with written permission.
Materials/Techniques: Pieced 100% cotton fabrics, cotton batting; machine quilted.
Artist's Statement: A little wonky in the borders because the skinny strips really required exact seam allowances to make them work properly and I was tired of unsewing so I just let it go. I figured Alzheimer's can make life a little wonky, why not this? Thus, Measure Twice Cut Once.
Dedication: In honor of Uncle Deane, a carpenter before Alzheimer's found him.
This quilt is displayed with Fast Finish Triangles.
This quilt earned $34.59 for the AAQI.
