Hurricane Sandy/ Moda's Summer Breeze Quilt
1 Attachment(s)
I have a g/f from high school who lost absolutely everything in the storm. When I saw the need for quilts for those effected by the storm my thoughts turned to Sharon. I had been hanging onto my Summer Breeze collection of fabric and decided I would make a new keepsake for her. I chose the Stepping Stones pattern from Lyer Cake, Jelly Roll and Charm Quilts by Pam and Nicky Lintott. I completed the sandwiching of this quilt and binding using Elmer's Washable School Glue and couldn't be more happy with the results. I FMQ this on my Sapphire 830, put a label on it, washed it at the laundry mat with a couple of Color Catchers and sent it by Fedex on Monday afternoon to New Jersey.

What a wonderful kindness to do for someone who is going through one of the worst experiences of her life....thank you for doing that for her. I know she's going to be in tears when she sees it....because its so beautiful, because you thought of her and wanted to help, and because there's so much darkness in her life right now and then your beautiful quilt arrives to add some light. Good for you!

Going to try ebay. |
Love your quilt and pattern is just stunning
|
You are a very special friend to do such a lovely thing. I know it will be treasured. I live on Long Island, but on the North Shore....I have many friends who lost so much during the hurricane. So many have nothing! Many will not be able to even rebuild....everything is gone.
Your lovely gift wil bring such comfort and be a treasure to your friend. |
Beautiful quilt. She will truly appreciate it! I am deeply embedded in the Hurricane Relief effort. My goal is 10 quilts, so far I have made 4. I have a long arm, so I am helping Dotty to provide quilts to those who lost all or much. My heart goes out to all of those in need.
|
Beautiful job and thank you for sharing, GOD Bless you
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
So pretty, your friend is very lucky! love blue and yellow together
|

|
Wow....you are a wonderful friend. Blue and yellow...just can't wrong and this one is a keeper.
|
A beautiful quilt! I love this collection of fabric! The pattern you used is fabulous for this fabric. I'm sure Sharon will love the quilt. It's made with a lot of love & you will be with her in her new keepsake. Thank you for sharing this with us. It reminds us of how fortunate we are than others. I hope that Sharon and her family are on their way to recovery from the storm.
|
Not only is that a beautiful quilt, but what a GOOD friend you are....:)
|
Beautiful. The Summer Breeze collection is one of my favorites. I made a quilt from it and also the Summer Breeze II collection. I'm sure your friend will be blown away by your generosity.

It is so beautiful. It will be such a treasure for her.

Bless you and the Survivors of Sandy.
