Donation quilts

I hope you all aren't getting bored with seeing my quilts I am making to donate to our local Ronald McDonald house. At this time of year I focus a lot of my time and energy into making these quilts so the kids can be wrapped in warm hugs while they are not feeling so well. These are all lap size and each are quilted with a different design. I actually used a couple panto's this time-yes I know shock! I really do like freehanding best however I just thought I should whip out a panto this time and the first I used was Happy Times on the pink yellow quilt and it went so smoothly that I used Square Spiral on the brown/yellow one and that too just flowed-guess it was just my day to use panto's. 
     The Quick Strippie quilts pattern can be found on Mary's website.  I wish I knew where the idea from the purple/white squares quilt came from, I know I saw something on the web but don't have a link. So if you recognize it please let me know! Anyway thanks for looking and I really do love getting comments, I read and try to answer each one :-)

Strippie Finish

This is what I have accomplished this past week-well the quilting and the binding to be specific. The quilt pattern is Quick Strippie from Mary and it is indeed quick, thanks Mary!  I quilted each one with a different freehand pattern. They were so fun and quick to make up, these will be donated to our local Ronald McDonald house. I am currently working on more :-)
