I had planned on getting this up sooner (sorry Cynthia) but we (just me - the kids ride their bikes) have been walking to swim lessons and then today when we got home, my 7 year old was needing some one-on-one time so we played Stratego - he beat me and was so excited too!
Anyway - here's the Red Letter Quilt all done:
I washed and dried it last night and the raw edge applique is totally fine.
Here are my two reluctant helpers (my son and his friend).
I think I want to try a smaller version of this as a baby quilt - smaller circles too.
The raw eating is going good - lost a few pounds already.
I made this the other day for lunch and used a raspberry vinagrette as the dipping sauce.
Raspberry Vinagrette:
1/2 c. canola oil (I used olive oil)
2 T Honey (you can use raw honey)
1 T mustard (you can use whole grain)
3 T Balsamic Vinegar
1 t lemon or lime juice
salt and pepper
1/2 c. fresh or frozen raspberries
Blend in blender until desired consistency. You could always add a bit of water to thin it out if it's too thick.
