Hello, and welcome to week 3 of this monster quilt journey! In case you missed it, here are weeks one and two. Once again, this week will be short and sweet.

I've started with Lil'Schep's favorite Disney character:
We still have a long way to go patience-wise!
Nothing new on our tabletop this week. Stay tuned.
Perhaps I'll actually remember to link up to Finished or Not Friday this week. Until next time, God Bless!
