    I just finished 5 charity quilts this month for our guild. We give to children, homeless shelters, cancer, vets, etc. It is such a worthwhile project and I really feel good after finishing a quilt for any of the above. Good for you!

    Thank you for taking the time to give these children something that can bring them a little comfort. So sad!!!

    I love how you quilted the scrappy. It suits it. The lighthouse and sailboats remind me of Warren Kimble paintings. I love the little anchers you put in the sashing.
