Charity Quilts
 
2 Attachment(s)
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

Nice! I love the colors you chose for the first quilt.

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

Beautiful! They will be much appreciated. I love pastel one so much.

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.

I love the way you used the serpentine stitch! I'm gonna try it on my next project.

Sounds like a productive retreat...I have not yet had the opportunity to attend a retreat but I doubt I would be able to get 6 quilt tops done. Lovely charity quilts.

Nicely done.

2manyhobbies 04-15-2017 04:29 AM

These are always so appreciated. I am making them too and wanted to use my serpentine stitch as it really looks nice, but the machine that has the stitch needs readjusting, darn.

Homespun 04-15-2017 05:30 AM

Great job on those!
