On Saturday I plan to hand 8 quilts over to our local QFK Area Coordinator. I finished 6 of them today. One I made a couple weeks ago when I made 5 but only 4 fit in the box to QFK in PA. Two of these are from kits I got from Genneah, our coordinator. The rest are from my stash. One of them was put together by a dear friend that I put together kits from my stash for her to make. There was a call out for quilts for teen boys so that's what most of them are. Though the Teal and purple ones are maybe better for teen girls.

All together

Those are just lovely...8 children will be wrapped in a hug from you.

Great job! I sent six to them awhile back but I need to get busy!! I have one quilted that needs binding. One that is pin basted. And one finished top. It will be a couple of weeks before I can address those but you've inspired me. :)

You are a QUILTING MACHINE! Your kids are going to be SOOO EXCITED to get these!

I have two to get going on, and one binding to put on..and I'm dragging my feet...lol I came out of retirement and went back to work. My ability to stay focused (and have a lot of energy) is shaky...lol
