Simple, Cheery Donation Quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
After a long weekend of wine and laughter in Algonquin Pk with 6 other guild members, we did manage to make this little beauty. I just finished quilting it, very simply. Now I pass it off to another member who will bind it and bring it to our meeting next month. Sadly, it's destined for the sexual assault unit for children at our local hospital.

It is bright and cheery - and it has "enough" quilting.

What are the dimensions of the quilt?

The dimensions are 60x 48. 12 inch blocks made using charm squares.

Very pretty !!!

It is a cheery quilt and and as bearisgray said, it is just enough quilting. I do like that design in the blocks and what a great design for charms! Yes, it is sad to hear where it is going but it will make someone feel loved and comforted I'll bet. I love to hear when a group of quilters get together and share the work load. The "bee" is still alive and kicking in your area! Nice!

Cheerful windows to a bright future! Sad that anyone would misuse children but it happens more often than we realize. Your beautiful quilt will make some hurting child feel loved and comforted. Thanks for doing it!
