I got caught in the snarled air travel from Pax. My weekly commute includes two legs - I travel thru Charlotte to catch a prop plane to a small airport in eastern North Carolina. I knew I wouldn't make it from the small airport to Charlotte, so I rented a car and drove five hours to increase my chances of getting home for the weekend. My Indiana winter driving skills got me there safely. I waited in line for two hours to get booked on a flight the next morning. Unfortunately, there were no hotel rooms available - my only option was to spend the night at the airport. Amazingly, I had a quilt packed in my luggage! I finished hand stitching the binding earlier in the week and the quilt was packed to bring home.

Add it to the Pile
Among my cache of quilt ephemera was a photo of a T block doll quilt. It was made of scrap and muslin. I really thought that I was going to make a copy of it, but ended up with this version, made of charm squares.
Sometimes you just need to listen when the fabric speaks to you.
