Default Charity Quilts

I sewed 6 quilt tops at my last retreat. Yesterday, I got two of them quilted. I used the serpentine stitch on my machine elongating it some and as wide as my machine allows 7.0 . Since I hope to turn them in on Monday, I'd better get going on the rest
I love that there are hearts on the backing as these are for the local cancer center

Such a worthwhile project. Do they require a certain size. Lost two of my best friends to cancer and would be interested in making some for our local hospital. Thanks, grammasharon

Nicely done! These will be so appreciated. I like the stitch you used too. Wish my machine had it.

I called the cancer center to ask what size they prefer... the centers are not all the same. Our center prefers 3'x4'. I also make knit and crochet ones for them because I can do that lying down when I'm resting.
