something without need

This past year has been filled with getting things done that needed to be done. This summer I wanted to do something that didn't need to be done. So I made a quilt top. I have never pieced a quilt before and while this is a very simple one I 'did it by myself!' I used the old jeans sitting in my sewing room waiting to be donated or made into shorts. The printed red material is from my grandmother. So far it is free. I just had to buy the red material and that was pretty cheap. I look forward to tying it when the basement is finished. Don't look too close. Not all the corners and seams match up and I even allowed a few tucks to make things fit. No matter. I loved spending time on something that had no need.
