H2H donation quilt ready



This is my first quilt ready for donation for the H2H project going on over at Sarah's.  Sarah has done this for several years, but, this will be my first year to participate.

I had pieced this a couple years ago with the intent of practicing some Christina Cameli designs from her second book.  The practicing got done on other more important projects instead.  But, when Sarah announced the H2H last Sunday, I knew it would be good to get this out of the closet and into the hands of someone who could use it.

It was definitely fun playing with some new designs.



I found a fleece in my stash that was the perfect size for the backing.


Linking with Sarah for Whoop Whoop and Myra for Finished or not.  Links on my side bar.

  1. Ooh, fantastic quilting! I love how the white makes the prints pop. I want to use the same color contrast on a quilt I'm planning right now.

  3. Great quilt and such fun quilting! When you use fleece for the back, do you use batting, too? This will bring smiles to someone special.

  4. Such a cute, simple quilt. The quilting adds a lot. The fleece makes it look so cozy. I've never added fleece to a quilt. I may need to try it sometime.

  9. Great quilting, Vicki! Those long panels are the perfect canvas to practice skinny designs like that. Such a bright, cheerful quilt! Which charity will this go to?

    I'm inspired to see several H2H quilts are already finished, woo hoo! I've been piecing one of mine for a couple days now...

  10. Love, love, love the quilting, especially the green strip! I have a domestic machine on a frame and it only does one speed, so I am always looking for designs with minimal stops, starts, and sharp turns, this one looks perfect! Thanks for sharing :)
