It’s done! BOM 2014 on the bed for the first time

I know, we’re three quarters of the way through 2015, and I’m just now putting my 2014 BOM on the bed for the first time. I’m finding everything takes 10 times as long as normal when you have a toddler running around the house. I finished putting this beauty together at my guild’s biannual quilt […]
