My anchor holds within the veil.

 I decided to try to make a few projects for  Project Quilting 2021, season 12. I did participate a couple years ago and I think that I had finished  2 or 3 projects within the season. We'll see how many I can complete this season.  For the 1st Challenge - Gray and Yellow, I looked through my gray and yellow fabric and found a few fat quarters, some with anchors on them. So what did I decide to make - an anchor, of course. 

Gray can be spelled either gray or grey. However, yellow is always spelled yellow. So not to be confused if my anchor is gray or grey, I made my anchor yellow. This block is from The Patchsmith's Sampler blocks. I've had the book for a few years so it is time to sew a few blocks.  I can use this for a mug rug or a trivet on my table. 

I'm happy that I started and completed this mug rug within the 1-week time frame. This quilt measures 9"x9" and I create in Monessen, PA. I'll be looking forward to the next installment to see what I can make.
