charity quilt done and sent!

I finished the quilt! It has been shipped off and hopefully will make some little girl very happy! I stippled the entire thing and used 6 bobbins total! They asked that be heavily quilted so I think I did that pretty well :)





I named it Dreams Come True because of all the fairies and it just seemed to have a magical type vibe to it. So, there it is, my first finish for 2010! My goal is to finish 10 this year. We'll see how that goes :)

my charity quilt

Downy is sponsoring an organization that collects quilts for charity that benefit sick kids in hospitals. You can find all the information, and request a kit here. I requested a kit on a Tuesday and UPS dropped it off on Friday so they come really quickly. All you have to provide is the batting, thread (no monofilament), and return shipping. As you can see the pattern is very simple, I encourage all you quilters out there to get a kit and participate!

quilting for charity

Quilts for Kids is an organization that collects quilts for children in hospitals. They are generally lap size or crib size. If you want you can request a kit. All you provide is the batting, thread and return shipping. They can also send you a tax deduction form if you need. You can also use fabrics of your own if you wish too. All the information is on their website, I highly recommend you check it out! Kids love having that something special when they're sick or injured, please help out by requesting a kit or making a quilt to donate.

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD TO ALL THE QUILTERS YOU CAN THINK OF!!
