An easy and fast VA quilt - just use 7" squares to make your 20 snowballs and 2 1/2" strips to make a 36 x 44 1/2" quilt.  Easy peasy.

The BOM

Lots of lovely Victoria Aves were turned in.  You ladies are doing a great job.  These are going to be wonderful quilts.  Here's some pics:


 You added details!
 Like mother, like daughters - they had us in stitches!  But we still missed you Susan.  Hope you had a wonderful visit.
