2019 Charity Quilts

I belong to a group at church called St. Anne's Sewdality.  We make baby quilts for low-income mothers. We chose the 36" size because they're good for newborns, car seats and strollers.  We also give some to parishioners who need them. Theirs are bigger. Here are the ones I made:
1.  
We were given this fabric as a donation.  It had been fussy cut. I worked to salvage it and made a top.

2.
My mom made the center and I added the large border and quilted it.

A baker's dozen.  Hope to make at least that many in 2020.  How about you?



My 2019 Finishes

Oh, this is terrible. I can't believe I only finished 1 of my six goals for 2019.  So you know what I'll be doing in 2020 - those other 5 - lol.  You can see those here.  The one I did finish:

and the back:


 Let's go back and see what I did finish.
Made three applique blocks

Started a scrap quilt
Wasn't on my UFO list but it was one. Now all finished.
This top was started in 2016 and finished that same year. Just needed quilting. It's for a family member. The blocks were from Pat Sloan's BOW Winter Solstice to make Angela's RSC challenge of the same year. 
Sent a block to Lori of Humble Quilts:

Quilted a top for my DIL:

Started another EPP project:
Made a baby quilt for our neighbor:
Finished a wall hanging for Lori's String-Along:
Made two teeny quilts:


a 2 1/4" one block quilt.

a mug rug
a scissor case for our Guild's steal game:
and no, I didn't buy a round pot holder and sew it together.  Made from scratch. In reality then, I finished 5 quilts this year (if I count those teeny ones), started 2, and quilted a bunch - mostly charity quilts. I'll post those tomorrow.  Wherever you are, stay warm or cool, stay safe, and enjoy this Sixth Day of Christmas.

Friday Finish

Hey, I finished a quilt.
I put together this top a while back.  Two St. Anne's members designed it from scraps and gave it to me to quilt.  I sandwiched it and set it aside. Things got piled on top of it and I just discovered it last week when I was organizing the sewing room.  So now it's quilted and bound.

Here's the back.  A Noah's Ark print by Debbie Mumm for SSI.  Believe back in 2012.

Happy Third Day of Christmas!

October Doings

October is behind us.  Does that put us in the Winter months?  I think it does. The skies have been foggy in the mornings - a thick fog that...
