I've been quiet, but busy sewing a couple of fun quilt tops ~ something to keep my mind off the snow and cold. Yes, Carol, it's still cold and we still have a lot of snow...yippy! I combined a couple of quilt design ideas to come up with a way to use this honey bun and charm pack.
Kelly Guy at Charming Chatter had a drawing during her Valentines Sewing Day Party and my name was drawn. Soon as I had the fabric in hand I made this quilt. Thanks Kelly!
I also received my kit from the Downy Quilts for Kids organization last week. I'm itching to quilt up the Valentine Quilt, but this quilt needs to be in the mail next week so it'll come first. The little frogs are CUTE!
My quilt holder has recovered from his latest surgery and is back on the job. :-D
Oh, my! I received the exact same kit from Quilts for Kids! I have finished mine, and will mail out today. Isn't this great! I don't know if I can request a 2nd kit, but will try. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt holder is first-rate. :D
ReplyDeleteAnd you accomplish so much so beautifully, Kim. I always get a lift when I wander over here. You inspire me.
I just love what you did with the Quilts for Kids fabric Kim..... and glad to hear your quilt holder is all mended too!
ReplyDeleteSweet quilts...you've been busy! There was a blurp about Quilts for Kids on Entertainment Tonight last night. :-) I like the kit they sent you...I got race cars....I want girly!! Oh well, some little boy will just love it or some girl who loves cars.
ReplyDeleteHi Kim, Your Valentine quilt looks like boxes of chocolates all wrapped up!! I like what you did with the honey bun and charms packs. The kids quilt is sweet! The black stripe was a perfect border. Some child will be very happy with this special quilt! You have been a busy girl!! I see lots of snow on the ground behind your quilt holder!! :0)
ReplyDeleteThose frogs are so cute! I have a Quilts for Kids quilt to make too! It's next on my list as soon as I finish my hexagon mini quilt. :0)
