March 2019. It's a big month here at the de Jong Dream House. After a couple decades in Arizona, my mom is moving in with us to be a professional coddiwompler. We are so excited to have her close in between her adventures.
In other news, the end of D's career at his school of the past six years is coming up quickly and I still have two more quilts I want to make. So this month, for my One Monthly Goal I'm going to work on a quilt I've been excited about for quite a quilt. It's an enlarged version of the Omigosh Quilt by the late Sue Garman. I'm calling it Omigolly.
I'm actually planning on making an Omigosh, too, but this month I will focus on Omigolly.
This shows the scale of the original block size.
This is my original idea for Omigolly.
You'll be able to find pictures of this quilt on Instagram at #OmigollyMissJ. To see what I'm currently working on, including my 2019 Brain Injury quilt, follow me at deJongDreamHouse.
