Mary Johnson, who initiated this project calls it the Little Quilt Project. I should have stayed with that because some are little quilts to be wrapped around a stuffie and some are small baby or car seat quilts. You can read about Mary's project HERE . This outreach has been very welcomed in my communities.
This week I have finished 4 little quilts. It helped me move the stack along by pairing all the remaining donated tops with batt and backings all ready to quilt on.
These first two quilts are I Spy type toppers donated by our Teresa G. I quilted one with an orange peel grid which seems to be my favorite at this moment for quilting on smallish squares. I quilted the other with straight lines going in several directions. This little lion looks like he was attacked by a bobcat.
This sweet quilt top was donated by Kathy Nyman. I quilted it with alternating lines in several directions.
This topper is baby size at 35 x 35. It was donated by Cindy Weber. If it's a block style with borders, I can't seem to keep it simple and so I fmq different designs in areas. I was a bit rusty on the final border but I dont think a baby will mind. I used a ruler for the straight lines.
Here is the back, a colorful print because the colors went perfectly with the top. I'm fussy that way.
