block wall quilt

Every year I head up a tradition that began
more than 15 years ago.
The ladies at my church give the graduating high school seniors a quilt.
 
It used to be a group effort.
Squares were cut at meetings....
Ties were added later....
but times have changed.
We don't meet monthly anymore.
That doesn't mean we can't give quilts, right???

Now...
We meet only ONE time to sew together.
I usually do the rest.
But you know what???
I love it!
 
This quilt is SO nice...
I think I'll cut strips and bring them to our gathering.
Then....
EVERYONE can help make another BEAUTY.
Isn't it the perfect BOY quilt???
Yeah.
I think so too.
;)

  4. Wonderful quilt, Beth. My grandmother made one like it way back when Quiana was popular just like it except the colors were more muted. She tied it.
