It took a total of 90 minutes to complete binding this quilt by machine. It's destined for a nursing home and industrial washing. Needs to be sturdy.
On Tuesday a group of us delivered a dozen quilts to an Aged Care facility. The residents and a few family that were there thanked us with lots of smiles.
Fredia and I collaborated on this quilt and we handed it to a family member for her loved one. Sometimes it's nice to know where your work goes. I don't participate in Community Quilts for acknowledgement but to use my skills for caring.
Still stitching scraps together in lights don't know where it's going yet. Do you always have a plan when you start a quilt?

I really like that top quilt, it's like a picture. I am sure the residents and their families really appreciate seeing who has made their quilts too
I bet the quilts are greatly appreciated by the recipients! And it just feels good to share quilts with others.
The picture quilt is so interesting.. Like a beautiful dream. You know how much I love that bold one. Those quilts will bring great cosy comfort to those who use them. I think it's fun that you are seeing your blocks without a plan, then there's more room for ideas to grow.
Oh Terry your quilts are going to be so well loved and used I reckon! No I don't have a plan when quilting as yet as I'm not experienced enough but I'm sure I will one day...
Your quilts are dream. You have done a great job with the charity quilts. I'm sure they would be well received - Have a great weekend - Hugs

Your quilts will be well loved and i know you will make them sturdy, they'll have a long life. It feels good to give but i agree, it's a bit special when you know where they are going.
