Joshuas Afghan

This afghan is made for my son Joshua when he was 13 years old. I started the squares about 5 years before that and put it away until early in 1998. I decided to make an afghan out of the squares in June of that year and I just started to put them together on the first of December. It was finally finished on December 5, 1998.

Random Quick Tip!

Pillow Form Stuffing
I like to make pillow forms with tiny scraps from my sewing. I keep every single little scrap of fabric, batting and thread. If the fabric is too small for even a scrap quilt or applique project, I throw it into a small bucket and when the bucket is full, I dump it into an old pillowcase. When I need stuffing for a pillow form, I can use it in that pillow form along with polyester Fiber Fill. It adds weight and you can fill the corners with the polyester fiberfill since that is easier to pack into the corners.
