Quilts received at July business meeting

Several people turned in quilts that they had made for Linus at the last meeting. Many were made entirely by one person, but some were made by several people -- one (or many) pieced the top, someone else quilted it, someone put on the binding. Here's a lovely pastel log cabin.
This is a great quilt of shining stars! It's big enough to be used by a teenager.
This red, white and blue quilt -- featuring nautical fabrics -- has squares of a few different sizes. Very cute!
This soccer quilt was started at the February Make-A-Blanket day and is finally ready for donation. This is a Project Linus pattern.
Diane M. at Sew Sassy made this quilt and had it hanging in the shop for a few months before donating it. Love that Laurel Burch border fabric!
We received 3 fleece quilts with car appliques, all in different colors. The cars are actually pockets that a child can put something into.
Thank you EVERYONE who donated a blanket to Project Linus!

More Linus kits returned!

To make the best use of our donated fabrics -- and of course of everyone's time and talents -- the Linus committee puts together kits that guild members take home to work on. That means that any one quilt may be worked on by several people: someone who chooses the pattern and cuts the quilt, someone (or several someones) who pieces the top, and then a quilter and sometimes a separate binder. I don't always find out the names of everyone who worked on the quilt, but everyone involved deserves a big thank you!

Talese S quilted and bound this child's rail fence quilt. If you click on the quilt to enlarge the photo, you can see the cute Raggedy Ann fabric.

Stephanie Mumm put together this bright panda Easy Squares kit. If you click the photo you'll get a better view of the panda bears in the white squares and admire her fun and creative quilting design!

Unfortunately I don't have the name of the person who turned in this nine-patch panel kit. It's beautifully finished -- please let me know if you made it!
Thank you, thank you!

Baby quilts

Sue K did it again! She took all the unclaimed fleece after last night's guild meeting (and due to a wonderful response on the part of other guild members, only 4 pieces were left!) and serged the edges to make more preemie blankets. Thanks again, Sue.Joyce C made this cozy flannel baby quilt from a committee kit. She has been working on it at Sew Sassy work nights. If you're thinking about making a Linus quilt, that's a great way to do it. Just show up and we'll provide a kit for you to work on there. Joyce took her kit from start to finish, but you can just work one night and let someone else finish it if you prefer. This quilt looks really cute, Joyce -- thanks so much!
Mary M quilted this strip quilt put together from a Linus kit. (Sorry, I don't know who pieced the top.) Thank you, Mary. It's always wonderful when someone volunteers to take on the quilting!

Child friendly rail fence

Donna R made a lively rail fence quilt for Make A Blanket Day. One children's novelty print and three other bright fabrics make a lovely quilt! She used a variety of fabrics in the binding to make it interesting.
