I finally finished the quilt top for the Valley MQG. Now it can be passed on to someone else to do the quilting part. You can read about the quilt here.
I managed to finish it at 41" x 44" and have dark purple leftover enough to make binding after the quilting is done. Piecing this quilt top is a joy and it makes me happy to know that a child will be receiving this warm quilt.
I have so much to be thankful for. I'm grateful for my family, friends and the quilting community I've found. It's a wonderful community and you all are great people for this I thank you to each and everyone of you.
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

Nice finish. I enjoy making smaller quilts to give to children in need also. But my goal is to make dents in my ridiculous stash. I used to buy lots of kids friend fabrics but now I'm focusing on "go withs" and backing fabrics. Oh, and moving UFOs along. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteCute! Sweet! Yes, I'm with Bonnie, small baby quilts are fun to make! Happy Thanksgiving, Margo!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful. Purple and yellow and my two favorite colors. I'm sure some child will treasure it.
ReplyDeleteit's a beautiful quilt that a little girl will cherish, love the purple and yellow together!
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt top, the fabric is cute and I like the pattern. For sure a little kid will love it. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing and linking up ;)
Happy Thanksgiving to you, too, Margo! SEW sweet of you to prepare the binding with what was left from making the quilt top. The quilter will appreciate that!
ReplyDeleteI love that dark purple for the border, and it really makes the quilt pop! Purple and yellow is one of my favorite color combos. Such a happy quilt! I hope you had a wonderful week and thank you for sharing with us at To Do Tuesday! :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing how that bag had just what you needed to make a top even though there wasn’t a pattern. It is so cute. And it was sweet of you to make a quilt to give to charity during Thanksgiving week.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a pretty quilt and for such a good cause. Thanks for linking up with DrEAMi :-)
