The Philly Modern Quilt Guild is doing a group of I Spy quilts for donation to a children’s hospital. Tonight is the night that we turn them in. I have to say that while I am not super proud of the design or quilting on these (it was some late night quilting last night) I am hopeful they will make some child’s hospital stay a little sunnier.
I love quilt stacks, they make me feel accomplished!
Variegated thread for both quilt tops, but you can only really tell on my pink and green one. The backing for this one is a lovely garden scene that picked up all the colors from the front.
I went a little crazy on tight quilting lines, but I think the pattern helped make the top a little fancier.
Super simple squares on this one. All those bright colors didn’t need much else. I really love the striped backing on this one! I chose to do this fold over binding as these quilts will be getting a lot of washing and binding is always the first thing to loosen up.
Leaving for a fantastic vacation this weekend where I will deliver some of my homemade goodies! see you in June!
Very nice charity quilts. Enjoy your vacation!
