Back in July 2011, the Waits family met in Lafayette, Louisiana for a reunion. I decided to push my craftiness onto those at the reunion (hey, I married into the family) and nag people into making a quilt. We had mixed participation at first, but some family members really got into it. It was decided that our dear aunt, Julia, should receive the quilt. Fast forward to March 2012 and I FINALLY finished the quilt. Unfortunately the project kept getting pushed to the back burner. How fun it was going over the the fond memories of the reunion while finishing the quilt.
I hope Aunt Julia enjoys it as much as I enjoyed making it. I've also included a couple of photos from the reunion.

Just the way I like them, nice and lazy.
