I have a stack of quilts ready to be sent to Quilts Beyond Borders.

A shout out to everyone that helped created this mountain of love.

Another Flimsy

My completed flimsy top for St. Anne's.  I took a  24 by 42 panel and cut off the blocks at top and bottom. Then added a blue solid around it. I then made some row blocks and added them to the blocks and set them on the sides.  Then took a green solid to finish at 37 x 35 - a more useable size for a baby quilt.  It now goes to other St. Anne's workers to sandwich, tie and bind.

Now why don't textile manufacturers make panels that are more to this size.  It would make it so easy to make a baby quilt in no time at all.  What are you working on?

hands2help

This quilt is going to Sarah's quilt drive.....
HANDS2HELP.
 
I began with a brown and pink jelly roll
and added some orphan blocks.
 
I like the way the orphan blocks
introduce GREEN!!!
I would NEVER have thought to ADD it!
The green border ties it all together.
 
House, Hearts and Cupcake!
What a FUN mix!
