Little quilts
I'm once again working very quickly to finish two little kid quilts. A young boy down the street has cancer. I don't know the family, but they're friends of friends as well as neighbors and I just felt I needed to make him a quilt. I have a superhero quilt done for him -- Superman and Batman combined. And I'm making one for his 2-year-old sister. Most of my kid fabrics went out during the purge earlier this summer. All that was left really was a bag of strips left over from making another baby quilt, all different sizes and lengths. I'm just stitching them together randomly and then cutting into 8.5inch squares. I'll alternate those with some light, sort of floral squares. I hope they are cute, and I need to get done really fast. Wish me luck. I'll post pics when I'm done.

You have so much kindness in your heart Sunny. Lizzy |

They will no doubt enjoy the quilts, and take comfort that someone
cared to think of them! And their parents will be grateful, too. Bless you, Ginger in CA On Aug 15, 11:29*pm, Sunny wrote: I'm once again working very quickly to finish two little kid quilts.
