    Very pretty quilt. I like the back too. Using up the fabrics on the back is something I love to do. I love the cause also. My sister before she retired done that at the office she worked at also. Hers was adopting kids though. She new the age & sex & sizes & then they would buy accordingly. She never had kids so she loved doing things like this. She also loves shopping so it is right up her alley.lol I tease her about that. Her hobby is shopping like mine is quilting. Never seen anyone that can shop like she does! She spends hours every week at the mall. She doesn't have to buy anything but she has to shop! lol Sorry I got side tracked!

    geat quilt! Thanks for sharing. At work we have an "Angels of Giving" tree. The family members are hung as ornaments on the tree. Last year I picked a little girl and gave her a strawberry shortcake quilt with a doll. I was thinking about doing it again this year but I was starting to back out... now you have inspired me I am going to start looking through my fabric now

    meyert--I made one last year, too. It felt so good to give a practical, yet pretty, gift. Good for you on doing another!
