"Have Faith" Donation Quilt
I found the HAVE FAITH Quilt Block online a while ago and finally finished 20 blocks. Not quite big enough, I added a scrappy 3 inch border.
This was offered as a free pattern with the request that you donate the finished quilts to a charity. Last night I passed it on to my local guild (LFQG) and they'll find a good home for it.
This is a fun, simple 12 block (finished)....yes, yes it did take 9 months to finish but that was just all my other quilty projects fighting for attention...you all know how that goes!!
The finished ..washed and wrinkly ... quilt:

Love your hand quilting on this one!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jocelyn, it keeps me out of trouble ( no more fabric shopping till the hand quilting is done)
DeleteWhat a beautiful quilt! The colours are just so vibrant. Your hand quilting is so special. I think of all the patience and love you put into this.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I feel like I get to enjoy the quilt a bit by handquilting and binding it before donating.
DeleteI love that you added the scrappy border to make this quilt larger. I would have never known that the border wasn't part of the pattern. I'm sure the person who receives it will love it!
