Lions, tigers, and bears . . . Oh my!

But in reality, there are

 bees, fish, pennies, bugs,

 stars, footballs, plaids,

and of course jelly beans.

In the very big one-patch quilt.  At least 30 years of fabric collecting is represented here.

Each square was carefully selected and placed.  The quilting table had to be raised even more to fit the backing.

My flu symptoms are back today so the quiet task of pinning filled the bill.  No vigorous yard work was permitted, which is a shame as the weather was perfect.

If you have to go out shopping, wear gloves and possibly a mask.  This flu season is the worst I've seen in awhile.

Until then, keep stitchin' . . .
