Scrappy Teddy Bear Quilt - Polar Bear Plunge Blog Hop

 Welcome to 
Creatin' in the Sticks!

Today is the first day of the first blog hop of 2022!

I'm excited to kick off the
Polar Bear Plunge Blog Hop
where bloggers are sharing favorite "chilly" projects.

To get the blog hop started,
I present my
Scrappy Teddy Bear Quilt


Joan at MooseStash Quilting presented bloggers with the challenge to make something 
inspired by 
bears, blue, or anything cold.
Thank you, Joan, for inviting me to join this super fun blog hop!


The timing of this blog hop couldn't be better.

My Scrappy Teddy Bear Quilt is for my new grandson 
and 
his room is all bears.

I took advantage of the hop and made him a minky backed throw
(perfect for tummy time)
and
used up a bunch of 2 1/2 inch squares from my stash, too!
win-win!

I went old-school to design the quilt and drew it out on graph paper.
(my favorite way to design!)


I added another border and quilted it fast with meandering.
It's about 38" x 48"

Get inspired by all the blogs posting for the Polar Bear Plunge this week:

We just finished watching the Chiefs win and my daughter sent me a picture of my grandbabies.
I thought I would share, even though he isn't on the quilt, he sure is cute in his 
Chiefs!
