Donation Quilt #1

Earlier this month I posted a process for making your strips equal 1600 inches for making a 1600 quilt from scraps.  You can find that process HERE.  I've pieced, quilted and bound the first one and handed it over to my daughter Helen, who is the manager of our Long Term Care facility.  I have 8 more to go.  



Just a note, yes she is old enough.  She has a very youthful appearance.  Both of her little munchkins were hiding behind the quilt when the picture was taken.

  2. Those are the cutest pictures with the munchkins in front of the quilt! And the quilt makes a beautiful backdrop. The colors are wonderful and the quilt feels so calm and peaceful. I'm sure it will be much loved Kathi. Thanks for sharing it on Main Crush Monday!

  5. That's a great idea for scraps! I have Christmas scraps that might work for. I'd better start measuring!

  6. I love the quilt and have bookmarked your instructions to make one like this. Your family is beautiful.
    This post reminds me that I need to find a place to donate quilts. My husband was the recipient of a prayer quilt when he was in the hospital 6 years ago. He doesn't use it, but I love to cover myself with it and think about the prayers that surround it.
