Even though I'm not an official member of the WI, I sometimes help with projects like this, and offered to make a few little quilts.
I had a few ideas, and cut up some orange and yellow fabrics to make into HST units; I also cut up some of my "Eye Spy" fabrics into little squares to turn into a Plus quilt; and finally, I bought a Grunge Dots mini charm pack to add to a Grunge mini charm pack that I already had. I paired up each of the Grunge fabrics with a Grunge Dots fabric and sewed them into 4 patches, then sewed them into strips, and finally, into a big square.
I had some lightweight batting, and after a bit of a mis-step, assembled 4 little quilts "envelope" style - and they're ready to donate tomorrow!
I think they're kind of cute! Hopefully the kids will think so too!
Linking up to Needle and Thread Thursday at My Quilt Infatuation, Can I Get a Whoop-whoop at Confessions of a Fabric Addict, and Oh Scrap! at Quilting is More fun Than Housework. Thanks for your encouragement!
They're all very sweet quilts.
ReplyDeleteHi Jannette, those are really cute quilts. I'm sure they will be loved!
ReplyDeleteThose quilts are cute. What size are you making? As soon as taxes and shearing are done, I need to play again
ReplyDeleteWonderful selection of offerings! It's SEW kind of you to participate in the program.
