Patriot Quilts

Our Quilt Guild did 2 group quilts. One is totally completed and the second the top is done and is off to the long armers.

 
This one was made from a Fons & Porter kit that I had for years and never got too. I donated it to the group and different people worked on the blocks of their choosing. Amazingly very few of the blocks came in at the wrong size so it was fairly easy to assemble. We will raffle it off at our Quilt Affair in 2 weeks. It really turned out good.
 

 
This one was basically the same blocks with everyone using fabrics of their own. It will be raffled off to a member at some later date. There are a few differences with this one. Some people did extra blocks and there were some blocks not done at all. I used the extras that were done so some of the blocks in the first one aren't in this one. On this one I did the flags and the 2nd block down on the left under the stars in circles.
 
I enjoyed doing this project, but am glad to finally have both of them gone.

WIC Quilt


This is the 1st of a few quilts that I will be doing for the WIC program. I love the circus theme, and the striped fabric reminds of the circus tent. Hope to do a few more for that program when I have more time.

I should have pictures of 2 group quilts soon.
