Nearly there, need labels

Two improv quilts need labels. The big one is called "My Mind on Steroids" because my over-active brain looks like that in scraps. It is all from bits of this and that and was fun to make. I had it quilted by Kim Caskey who does her magic freehand. It is a lesson in quilting just to look at. She was given freedom to do whatever she wanted and I'm so happy with her work on this. It is about 68" square. This is not a great photo. Email me for a better one.

The other one is also scrappy and improv. Two colors. "Blue Squares in Squares" and also fun to make. I broke all the rules by quilting it in lines instead of curves, and like the result. I was going to donate it, but just might keep it for a while. Both need labels and once that is done - on to two more improvs. I'm thoroughly convinced that scraps are related to rabbits and multiply in the night.

Also cutting up flannel pj bottoms that I don't wear. All but one (of six) are plaids and each produce about 60 four-inch squares. They will make fun baby quilts, likely with a heart or animal or something appliqued on them.
