Quilt progress

 

 

This is the progress I have made so far with the fundraiser quilt. Still have a lot of work to do on it.

 

Things are greening up nicely here. The Lilacs are in bloom as are the fruit trees. It is truly one of the prettiest times of the year. Need to get out and weed the flower gardens and get some seeds sowed. Hopefully we are done with the frosty nights. Every once in a while we will see a couple of our deer chasing each other at the back end of our property. It is such fun to watch them.

Easy Quilt

This is a quilt I made for our local Hospice group that has 2 summer camps each year for children who have lost someone. They run a camp for the young children and a second one for older children. They like to be able to give each of them a quilt to keep.

This is a very quick and easy quilt to make. It takes one Jelly Roll and enough 2 1/2" squares of a light or dark color to go between each of the strips. You sew all the strips together as they come off the jelly roll with a block in between each. Then you just bring the 2 ends together and sew the whole length snipping the fold when you get to the end. You bring the opposite ends together again and sew until the end and repeat this until you have the quilt made.
