A UFO done for FAL

I decided to take a couple hours yesterday and get my little sailboat donation quilt done.  It was on my Q2 FAL list so I feel triumphant to have crossed it off my list so early!  OK so it is just a small baby size but a finish no less:)

 I used poly batting and kept the quilting simple with a watery looking design.

The backing was given to me by a friend a very long time ago.  There was yardage of this piece, I still have some for at least one more quilt!

 The sailboat came from using the Accuquilt Go 8" cube.  This sweet little quilt will go to H2H 2019, which makes my third one so far.

Sailing away

Here is a little project I started yesterday, a sailboat block for an H2H donation quilt.

Sarah at Confessions of a Fabric Addict is heading up the H2H or Hands2Help 2019 again.  This has been a very successful program to send quilts to those in need of some comfort.  You can read about it on Sarah's blog.  This will be my 3rd year of making a few quilts to donate.  

You heard me talk about being an Island Batik Ambassador, and how this year they partnered with Accuquilt.  Which meant we all got a Go Ultimate fabric cutting system.  It included the machine with the 8" cube, a book of block designs and the 2.5" strip cutting die also.   I wanted to play with using the machine and dies before doing an Island batik project next month.  So I decided to try it out on this sailboat block.  

I love that the dies cut off the dog ears!  And talk about accuracy, go back up to my first photo and see how my points all line up perfectly!
