I LOVE this quilt! Each and every block is so different. There are different greens and purples and greys, but it works!
The ladies from the Quilting for Kids group did an awesome job. I can't tell you how thankful I am that you all pitched in to make this quilt for "T." (Read the story here.)
I only had a problem with one of the blocks being a little small, but the rest were perfect. Do you know how easy it made the piecing?
Sarah sent me a surprise with her block. She sent me 2 yards of this purple marble to use for the quilt. It added a special little touch to the back. (You can see I was about 2 inches shy on the one side, so had to add a little white.)
Some of the asterisks were quilted on the outside, like the one above, and some on the inside like the one below.
It was fun and easy for me to put together. You guys did all the hard work! Please visit the ladies who made this possible and tell them what a great job they did!
