Sewing Project

So I've never been one to sew. Somehow my mother-in-law had the idea that it would be good for me to make a quilt. Not sure why this occurred to her. Not sure how I ended up agreeing to it. My sister-in-law, Sommer, who is very talented at this type of thing, took me shopping for fabric on Monday and today was the BIG sewing day. We made 90 (I think) of these squares, which will eventually be made into a quilt matching the blue bunkbeds we bought for the boys, which I still don't have proper bedding for. The whole process of ironing, cutting, and sewing looks easier than it actually is, and I'm exhausted. When (IF) I ever finish it, I will be so proud of myself!
