This week we met for a couple of hours on Saturday afternoon to make some more charity quilt blocks.
We started these some time ago and decided on a couple of different themes according to the fabric scraps we had to hand. A 'manly' quilt using the darker and more neutral patterns, a 'ladies' quilt using the florals, and a children's quilt using the brights and motif fabrics.
Here's a close up of the children's...
and the neutral blocks...

17 finished blocks! |
We managed to finish 17 assorted blocks on the afternoon to add to our already considerable pile. Hopefully we'll eventually make enough for 3 quilts to donate to those who are in need. This quilt as you go method is very easy and great for using up scraps, and can be done by a group who are also busy drinking tea and having a good chat...
