What I have been doing – Quilty Stuff
Posted By drsao on July 7, 2009
I have been on a binding marathon and finally I have FINISHED FIVE baby quilts to give to the Country Piecemaker’s Quilt Guild on Saturday to donate to the babies in the ICU unit. AND ONE OF THEM I QUILTED MYSELF – my first one ever and it is NOT GOOD – but I did my best – and I guess everyone has to have a first one. Hopefully the baby who gets it will not care. 
Sara quilted the Baby Bears Pinks, the Baby Bears Blue, the Fabricaholics Jan. 09 Mystery (Star Struck) and the Giraffe and Friends quilts and they ARE ALL GOOD. I quilted the Premier Nine-Patch – I named it PREMIER because it is my premier quilting job.
These quilts were all made with a lot of help from four of my cats – and yes the quilts will be washed before going to the hospital!
I also made a label for my nephew Joey’s FOREVER PLAID QUILT – and I made my MODA SELVAGES 09 Blocks and Filler for July. My filler block is unique because I used some tiny nine-patches that I had leftover from earlier months.

You sure have been busy. Glad you liked Charlottesville. Did you know I lived there for 24 years before moving to Richmond? How were the prices at Mr. Hanks? I taught a class at the guild here last night. I’ll have several charity quilts when I get back, since I had to make several in stages for the class. Tomorrow is Holy Thursday. Yippee!
