Just For You Quilts
One of the service projects for our local guild, Gwinnett Quilters Guild, is making quilts for the children at a local children's hospital. I'm not very proficient at machine quilting so I like to make Rag Quilts to donate. It dawned on me last week that if I didn't get busy I wouldn't have a quilt to contribute this year. My stash closet has a selection of flannel. There is a need for quilts for teen boys. Because we have lots of boys in my family, I try to purchase "masculine" flannel fabric. Thursday, I pulled fabric and left-over batting and cut 10 inch squares. Friday and Saturday while sewing with my Thimbles friend, I sewed the blocks and began the rows. Joining the rows was a bit of a strain for my Featherweight so I waited to do that at home with my Bernina and walking foot.

Wonderful quiilt! It will make a great donation quilt.
I love it...I've been wanting to do do a Rag quilt.
It's the perfect thing.
Just beautiful and looks so soft and cozy. Wondering if the back was all the same fabric.
Very nice! Love the scrappy look. Some young man is sure to appreciate this.
Your quilt turned out great.
THis is going to be a well loved quilt.
