Default Donation for Christmas

I haven't done much quilting lately. In October I had cataract surgery, my brother and his wife visited from Texas, and I had jury duty. In November I had a request to make a quilt for a resident at our local Mission who is in drug rehab. So I looked in my stash for fabrics and this is what I created.

Wow, great quilt. Those "rich" colors look wonderful. Stay busy.

What wonderful colors you put together. You didn't say if this was for a man or woman, but it could easily be for either. Thank you for opening your heart to this person, especially at this time of year. I'm sure your quilt will bring cheer to the recipient.

A beautiful quilt and a version of Pinwheels I don’t think I’ve seen before. I’m saving this picture for a future quilt. I’m pretty sure I can figure the pattern out. What size are your blocks and overall finish? Love this!

Great gift quilt! Love that pattern -- does it have name other than being a string psttern?

Love your quilt and your generous, kind nature to make a quilt to cheer and encourage another person going through a tough time.
How long did it take to make your lovely quilt? It seems you are off and running with your wonderful quilting talent after your cataract surgery. Do you see color better...my friend said the fabric colors looked brighter after her cataract surgery.

Like others, I love your color choices. They blend and move together so well. I made a baby quilt for my last grandson using that pattern, just not as many blocks of course. And naturally I can't remember the name of the pattern. Tropical Breezes or something with the word breezes in it. Welcome back to quilting. You return is stunning.
