This is my final quilt for the H2H challenge over at Sarah's . This week is the 'show off' week so we can all see what the others have accomplished. And wow there is a whole lot of quilts being shown!! Congrats to everyone that is participating.
I did several of these chunky race quilts with my older blue and mauve stash earlier this year. This one got cut out and not sewn back then, so I hurried this week and got it done just in time. The idea of the chunky race quilt comes from my friend Jasmine. A very quick and easy quilt to make.
A simple allover freehand flower swirl to keep it cuddly.
This blue and Mauve one didn't make it into the pile of quilts as it wasn't finished at the time I took the pic. But it makes 12 quilts that I worked on during the H2H time. All along I thought I was going to deliver them all to the local Project Linus. However, I just got wind recently that our local Crisis Nursery Center was very low on quilts. So I loaded up my SUV and delivered them there. The gal was tickled pink, and I was so happy to help out.
In addition to the 12 H2H quilts I also gave them this stack of 21 quilts, that I made over the winter, for a total of 33!!! I am so very happy to have them out to where they can get given and used. It gave me 33 warm fuzzy feelings :) I set a personal goal of 30 quilts to make for donations this year, I surpassed my goal and I am so happy. These are all various sizes from 36x36 to a lap size. My closet is so much emptier!

Wow! How wonderful that you gave all those lovely quilts to a group that can use them. They will be loved! What a kind and generous person you must be. All the best to you.
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome, Vicki! Now you have room to fill with more quilts. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Vicki! I was hard pressed to get my one quilt done -- at least it was a big quilt so I'll take that as my excuse!
ReplyDeleteYou are so awesome, Vicki! Thanks for being part of H2H 2017!!
ReplyDeleteYou have been productive! Well done!
ReplyDeleteTime to make more! I got some warm fuzzies just from reading your post.
ReplyDeleteJob well done! That is just wonderful.
ReplyDelete33!! Wow! That's amazing and wonderful. I'm sure each and every donated quilt will make someone very happy. Now you have lots of room to fill with more 'warm & fuzzy feeling' quilts!

ReplyDeleteHi Vicki,
ReplyDeleteWOWEE - 33 quilts for donation is just fabulous. The stack of quilts in all their pretty colors looks so fun. I am sure that whoever receives one of these will feel the love in every stitch. Such a nice job and so sweet of you. ~smile~

ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous stack of quilts! So great! I'm actually prepping for sewing a slew of charity quilts too! I'm currently planning on donating to my local Project Linus too, but like you, if something more specific comes up, I'll definitely give them there! Thanks for linking up to TGIFF!
ReplyDeleteVicki, you are such a rock star!! 33 quilts is amazing! Congrats on exceeding your goal :)
ReplyDeleteWow, Vicki! Congratulations on meeting and exceeding your goal! And we're not even half way through the year yet! KUDOS!! So now what are you going to work on?
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I still need to quilt mine....Yours are an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThat is an incredible amount of quilts to be donating! You deserve a HUGE pat on the back. Congrats for exceeding your goal.
ReplyDeleteWow, Vicki, that's a whole lot of quilting goodness. A line up of them all would be great to see.
ReplyDeleteFantabulous work my friend, and so wonderful that you heard of a need and were able to give a bunch to the Crisis Nursery Centre. What kind of batting do you usually use for these?
ReplyDeleteBless your ♥ Vicki....you are earning your place in Heaven, for sure!
ReplyDeleteI'm SEW impressed!
Sent you a photo of my little project just now.
Jasmine is an inspiration and you are a doll. Tickled pink is an understatement. I am sure she was thrilled to bits. Kudos to you for all that you do and so fast, it is a blur...
ReplyDeleteSeeing these gorgeous stacks of quilts makes me want to go sew something right now, even though it is bedtime. I have another stack of strips for a chunky race quilt. They are addicting.
