Some Charity Quilts I've Made In The Last Few Days

Here are some charity quilts I've made in the last few days.  They'll be going to hospitalized and/or traumatized children.



Above two photos:  Front and back of the same quilt.  The front is pieced with random strips of fabric from my scrap bin.  I made them into 12-1/2" squares, then sewed the squares together.  The back is made from 2-1/2" jelly roll-type strips that I received in a swap.  This one's quilted and ready to go.  :-)


Above Photo:  Pink Poodle Princesses!  This one is a top only at the moment, but I hope to get it quilted this weekend.  The back fabric has fancy little poodles on it as well, along with polka dots.  The green fabric has little pink hearts on it.  This quilt top was made from mostly remnants and scraps.


Above Photo:  Pink Floral Paisleys!  The main print is a wild floral pattern with paisleys.  The accent blocks feature pink and yellow zigzags, and multi-colored flowers on a white background.  It's a top only at the moment, but I hope to get it quilted this weekend.
