I know I haven’t been here for a while,  I have been working though.  Anyhow a friend and I were discussing Quilts for Others this week and looking a fabrics.  She had a whole pile of strips!.  Not easy one 2 1/2” wide,  ALL odd sizes. I brought a few home to play with.  Today, waiting to take the dd out to look for a Prom dress, I decided I would play!  I stitched the really narrow ones to the white fabric  then cut them up and re arranged them.  There is actually white fabric beyond the 2 purple sides.  it just doesn’t show up well here. It’s really nothing fancy, but you could extrapolate a filler block or a way to use up some of your strips.

Just an Idea,  We can refer to this as K’s Block for now.  I look forward to some more ideas.


Quilting for Others

May 10, 2008

2 beautiful quilts are part of a group of quilts done by a few of my friends over the winter for  the regional Hospice.  Imagine if we all had the time to do just 1 quilt a year how many people would benefit.

Well done Ladies!
