H2H recap

I was able to donate two quilts this year to the H2H project. One went to Quilts of Compassion and one to Quilty Hugs. It has been a strange time indeed and I think quilting kept me grounded.  Congratulations to all those involved in this effort!

Just had to show off my pink peonies, poor things fall over outside and actually do better in the house. And fill the room with their sweet scent...

2 more Quilts for Kids

The QFK group is hoping to meet in June, but no one knows for sure. At any rate I have two more completed quilts from kits. I tried the organic wavy line to quilt. Sure is fast!

Block drive

I volunteered to assemble a quilt from donated blocks. They are all different so random placement was called for. I love how the smallest blocks kind of sparkle. It wasn’t until I took a photo I noticed two whitish squares next to each other, something I tried to avoid....
Next up are two quilts for Quilts for Kids...they are pinned and ready for quilting...
Enjoying my Spring flowers...

Binding in place

This is now finished and ready for a quick wash, part of me wanted to bind it with bright yellow, but I calmed down and went for something sensible!  I may keep this one because of the sentimental fabric, and it was made during the quarantine. It reminds me of hope radiating....
My crazy Christmas cactus has been blooming, this pink one for Mother’s Day!


Hope is quilted

Liking how this turned out...the backing is some fabric my son brought back from Paris France last year!

My Hope quilt

Lots of ways of assembling the quilt blocks, but the difficulty is trying to avoid same fabrics touching!  Looks like I need to do some more rearranging!
