All of the quilt groups to which I belong make donation quilts, but one group (only 4 members) recently met and sent the following donations on their way.
Here are individual pictures of a few of them




We’ve heard comments like, “Wow! That robot quilt took so much time, and you’re GIVING IT AWAY?” We believe that donation quilts should be as pretty and well made as quilts we keep for ourselves.
Some of us make quilts because we learn something new with each quilt, or because we enjoy playing with beautiful fabric. We get satisfaction out of it, and the group member who delivers the quilts says the staff at our designated charities is always appreciative. Also, quilting keeps us sane! Just sayin’.



what a fabulous effort
Thanks, Helen! One member made six twin-size quilts. I’m not sure how she had time!
Indeed, the quilts you-all have made are so pretty. Every one made to each maker’s exacting requirements. I never ceased to be amazed at the generosity of quilters – like you, and others – who tirelessly make and donate. It’s truly mind-boggling. You make all us quilters look good… and thank you for that! What a great bunch of people you hang out with!
Thanks! And yes, it’s a great bunch of people I hang out with, both in person and online. Thanks for your participation.
“We believe that donation quilts should be as pretty and well made as quilts we keep for ourselves.” Keep on sayin’ it, sister!
Thanks. And yes, apparently it needs to be said.
What beautifully designed quilts! And the fabrics are lovely too.
Thank you. We all had fun!
So wonderful and all those hearts you will touch 🙂
Thanks

I believe this also! I wish this didn’t have to be said! 🙂
Yep.
That’s an impressive pile!!
We are all retired now so we have time for this!
Thank you for the quilt show! And good for you and your quilting friends to get the quilts out in the world.
thanks! I am supposedly subscribed to your blog, but I don’t get an email when you publish. Are you on Blogger?
