100 Quilts For Kids

Today is the day to link up to 100 Quilts for Kids Quilt Along. Kate has issued a challenge to make quilts for kids. She posted this fun pattern called Storytime Squares Quilt Pattern by Rae Hoekstra from Made By Rae. Check out Rae website if you want the pattern.


Here is my Quilt for Kids using the Storytime Squares Quilt Pattern. My quilt is an I Spy Quilt. This quilt will be sent to Cincinnati Children's Hospital. It is a wonderful hospital. My daughter was a patient there 11 years ago.


Go to Swim, Bike, Quilt website and see what everyone else is making for 100 Quilts for Kids.

Turtle

Do you ever feel like you are not getting anything done? I saw this sign that says "I am so far behind I think I am in first place". I feel like this turtle. He doesn't ever move. Maybe he doesn't move because he is a night light. He was purchase on a trip and he has very special memories. Hopefully he can light the way for me to do some more sewing. He needs a name. Do you have a suggestion for his name?


I did manage to finish the binding on this prayer quilt. I have a friend who is going to have cancer surgery next week and this quilt is for her. It will be delivered to her next week. Don't you just love the Warm Wishes pattern?



I think I will go over to Sarah's to check on what everyone else has been working on this week.

Design Wall Monday - September 5, 2011

On my design wall is this Christmas gift for my husband. Shh! Don't tell him about the quilt.



Can you tell he is a OSU Buckeye Fan?




Have you seen the 100 Quilts for Kids Quilt Along? How about joining me in participating in the 100 Quilts for Kids. My quilt will be sent to Cincinnati Children's Hospital. I have my fabric all picked out so ready, set and sew.



Let's go over to Judy's at Patchwork Times to see what everyone else is working on.
