Mississippi License Plate Quilt

Life …

Grampa adds a stake to the signs that Ashton helped to paint.

… as a Quilter

I finished my trial Mississippi license plate block. Since this was a trial, I decided to go ahead and quilt it. I want to simplify, yes, simplify for my real quilt block for the AMB blog tour. I’m calling it

“Go Mississippi.”

I do like the way you continued the meandering up against the letters in the quilting.

I think that is just so gorgeous, and what a wonderful way to display a single plate! I can imagine a small display for a family made up of the states where they've lived or vacationed, or where they have people they love ... ! You've filled my head with ideas!

Now I want to do another plate of Louisiana just so I can quilt it! Everyone who has seen my plate says I have to add a crawfish, so I guess I'm not quite finished, as I thought. Your family is adorable. I'm coming back to check out quilts later.
Lovely to meet you neighbor!
