Quilt of Kindness #13
We are now half way to our goal of collecting 26 quilts of kindness. Quilt number 13 was donated by Connie. I don't know if you can see it in the picture but the blocks are made of a Sunbonnet Sue type of fabric, very cute.

Jane donated this beautiful fall quilt made from the Square in a Square 2 pattern off of the Quilters Cache website.
This will be a nice guy quilt for either Hospice house or for the Veteran's Home.

Quilts of Kindness #11
This is the third quilt that Betty donated. This was made during a workshop at one of the local guilds making a tessellating pinwheel quilt using the twister template. If you have not tried that yet it is so much fun as you never sew anything but squares together.
Love the colors in this, next to purple one of my favorites is teal!

Quilts of Kindness #9 and #10
These next two quilts of kindness were dropped off by Betty yesterday. I love this black/white and red quilt. I started saving fabrics to make one a couple of years ago but all the fabric remains in my stash untouched. Think I need to get a few more of the black and whites to freshen up the stack of fabrics and get something made with it. Great job Betty, and look at all those small triangles!!
This next quilt I believe was the result of a block swap she was in. I bet these blocks were a lot of fun to create and to swap.
Thanks again for these wonderful quilts, I am sure they will be appreciated.

Orphan Fat Quarters
We now have a basket of orphan fat quarters on the front counter. All yardage is gone and only the fat quarters remain. I have marked these fat quarters down to $1.50 so check them out the next time you are in the shop.

Quilts of Kindness #8
Quilt Number 8 was dropped off yesterday by Lois. She did this jelly roll type of quilt all with 2 1/2 inch strips she received at a guild swap. If you can see in the picture even the binding is made out of these scrappy strips. Thanks Lois!!

Quilt of Kindness #7
The 7th Quilt of Kindness was given to me Wednesday by Helen. The butterflies are made using a crayon technique and then embroidered around, very cute and different and really ties in the colors in the border fabric.
