    Default Windmill Blocks in pinks

    I haven't made that many donation quilts since March due to family matters and putting 8000 miles on my new car! this one was supposed to be for the cancer center. It turned out too small due to lack of fabric and some cutting errors. It will make a nice baby quilt or wheelchair quilt as a donation, though. I used my favorite serpentine stitch to quilt it. There didn't seem to be enough quilting in the windmill centers, so I did a tack stitch there.

    It's very soft and comforting looking. Hope your life calms some, family matters can be stressful. Maybe keep this calm looking quilt for you. It's very pretty.

    It will make wonderful donation quilt! Lovely combination of colors. I like the serpentine stitch also. I probably got the idea from you!

    I think it will be very nice baby quilt. The colors are so calming. I hope you can take more time for yourself. I know how hard that can be, but you really need to do it. Love being sent to you.

    8,000 miles in one year? Unless you had your sewing machine in the back seat....can't imagine how you were able to have the time to quilt anything! this is cute...and anywhere you donate it...I am sure it will find a nice home.
