Thought I might as well start a thread here so we can show any blocks or tops we make to send to the Foster Kid project montanaquilter mentioned on the "Swap" thread here so all can see.

Here is one I made using Take 5 method sent to me by a board member.

That's beautiful!!

Looks great!!!

Rein, that is so pretty! Love the color combo. What a neat pattern too. Another one to add to the list! Now cough up that pattern!

Oooo, I like it! Great job and the colors are really nice.

Rein, it is beautiful. Looks like a great pattern to use up some of my flannel for my contribution. Is the largest square block 4" or 6"?
Great job - thanks for the picture. :)

Great quilt.... :lol:

Thanks everyone for your lovely remarks! I appreciate your applause.

Hope we get lots of pics posted here from lots of quilters.

Very pretty quilt. I love blue and yellow. Great job.

Uh-Oh. I have already sent the rag quilt to Lee. I will see if I can find a picture of it somewhere.

Rein,
I am so loving that quilt.
The colors are so calming.
Thumbs up lady !!

Beautiful quilt, I love the fabrics you used :D :D :D

rein, that's one awesome quilt!! Awesome job girlfriend!!

Great job!
It is such a happy looking quilt. WIll bring smiles to all who see it and the one who receives it.

It's lovely.. Love the blue fabric, looks like a whirl pool.

Very Nice Rein,
After you cut it out, how long did it take to put together?

Hey Judee, I am going to take pix also and post to this thread-so don't worry I'll post your when I get it!!
Rein-that is so beautiful-some child I am sure will just love it-the colors are just perfect!!
Thanks again everyone for all your kindness and generosity


Lee :D :D

fantastic quilt

Oh that is going to be one lucky child.

Sally asked about the time it took - I would say that overall, it took about 5 to 6 hours including cutting (thanks Sally for the pattern idea). Of course, the ironing of fabrics took a while.

omak - that blue was a kind of "whirlpool" looking fabric. It went from a deep navy to a light turquoise and there were circles up to about about 10 inches in diameter. It worked perfectly for a pattern such as this.

Thanks again for you praises - I am looking forward to seeing items from others here -

Rein,
Beautiful quilt. The pattern looks fairly simple. Would you post the pattern, please?

Thanks ..... nice choice of colors.

sorry I posted my blocks on the wrong page. just like me not to read everything LOL Will do better from now on. A;so love that quilt. Ninnie

Here's my donation

Looks great! Looks as tho' it might be big enough for a pre-teen. I love the way the blocks are done.

That is so cool! I love it! All you ladies are so talented. I haven't been taught yet how to make those kinds of quilts-I wanna learn though. Maybe my local quilt shop will have a class sometime. Thanks for the donation. It'll be much appreciated.

Lee

A few pictures of quilts that have been donated by forum members. Thank you! I'll post more when they are done.

What a great cause!! Beautiful quilt--so bright and welcoming.

Super job by your quilters Lee

How thoughtful of you.....I'm sure it is gonna be well loved!.....:-)

That is so pretty.... :D

everyone is doing such a wonderful job. the colors are amazing. we got our picture taken with some of the quilts yesterday for our local newspaper. they are running a story about what our group is doing with the quilts. i am so excited to read the story and see the pix. hopefully we can get more people involved with it or get a few more material donations. 25 down 475 to go!!! :D :lol: :? Our local services division got their first 25 quilts yesterday and we so blessed with everyone's thoughtfulness-they almost cried! so thank to the few on this board who donated quilt tops and quilts. You women are amazing and we truly appreciate your help.

Lee

I am new here. So you are making quilts for someone here on the board to donate to foster children? So it is ok for you to ask people to make quilts are quilt tops for a cause? You mentioned fabric what do you need donations ?

I guess I missed this earlier also. :? Tell me more! :lol:

we still need help. we've gotten 25 done so far!! 475 more to go

well yes, it was orginally posted in the classified section so it's okay. we are making 500 quilts for children in foster care. we've gotten 25 done so far, we've had some help with board members and it's been wonderful. we need donations of anything to help us along-quilt tops, blocks, material. this is alot of quilts to make and one that i can't afford to do alone!! thank you for your interest, if you want to know more just pm me.
