    Default Blue Donation Quilt-almost free!
    Several years ago I was given a lot of blocks, of various sizes, from the family of a lady that had passed away. I used 1 set of the blocks in this quilt and alternated them with a cute skateboard fabric I had in my stash. I also had the green binding fabric and used a blue sheet (sorry to those that just shuddered at the mention of using a sheet for backing) and quilted this in an overall meander. It was sent to a friend for a boys summer camp. She is trying to gather 35 quilts and currently has about 20! I'm glad I could add to her quest...and the most expensive part of it was the shipping...lol.[ATTACH=CONFIG]573234[/ATTACH] Thanks for looking!
