For the Kids

My work is holding an auction on the weekend to raise funds for the local Children's Hospital and my supervisor asked if I could help.
So this pattern came to mind straight away. One that I made a couple of years ago and I loved making.
I went through my fabric shelves and scrap bin and came up with enough for a good sized crib quilt.
I always love the way a quilt looks once it's been washed and dried.
I delivered it to work this afternoon. It was nice to get out and to catch up with the girls from work.
I've been working on the Henrietta Whiskers BOM  and thoroughly
enjoying the hand applique.
 I hope to get back into the sewing room tomorrow and work on Jenna's quilt, that's been sitting since well before the surgery.

Happy Stitching
Linda

So cute! Border and fabrics are so cute. I remember when you made the first one. I still have the pattern, it's on my 'to make one day list' ( a long, long list).

Good for you to help out in such a time-consuming and generous way. Beautiful work, Linda! I hope you're getting around better and not feeling that your health is holding you back.

Such a perfect pattern for a cot quilt. Your's is just adorable. I'm sure it will be a hotly contested item.
