Now, on to quilting!!! |

I spent a few afternoons with quilters learning how to piece and assemble various blocks and this was the first project they picked for me. Since then I have finished 7 other quilts but this is my only scrappy quilt so far, but not the last! I agree that these projects are great for donation. We also donated to Hospice and Neonatal units at the hospital. We sent about 80 quilts with Doctors without borders and that was a great way to use up all those kids prints that we end up with.

I hung an organizer in my closet and organized my pieces by color.
