Handiwork and Refuge

 Dear Readers,

I have still been quilting, but I have neglected my blog.  I have finished two quilts I haven't blogged about.  This will be about both of these, as these two are not super creative.  I used the Kimberly blocks that I used to make the quilt for Julie at Christmas time.  The pattern is in the Stripology Mixology 3 book.  I had made too many for that quilt, as I decided that they needed sashing.  So I ordered more of the sashing fabric and made two quilts.  The first one I finished is called Handiwork and is for Rochelle Armstrongs new granddaughter.  Her mom is an artist and I thought she would enjoy the Tula Pink fabrics as Tula is a wonderful illustrator.  

Saw this fabric on sale at Main Street Fabrics in Ackerman so I picked it up for the back.

And the label....


The second quilt, I donated to Jackson Quilters for their charity quilt drive.  I used the last of the leftover blocks.  Will and I named it Refuge as it will go to the Claire Batson Children's hospital.  

I used a lot of scraps to make this back the lady bugs were trimmed off a wide back and the narrow strips were left over from the pineapple quilt.  The solid I have had forever so it need to be used too.  



and the label for this quilt.


Both have been given away!

Sew on,

Terry
