Wow! I am so happy to have these quilts done, along with some quilty friends that helped! There are 20 quilts on the fence! Seven of those were made by the quilty friends and thirteen were made by me. I have plans for more but I have to put them on hold so I can get some Christmas sewing done and give my left arm a rest! I did too much and brought on a case of tendinitis in my left elbow...
I also knitted a bunch of hats in the last month too! There is one more that is done but did not make the picture.
And finally today I am delivering the quilts and all the other donations I have collected in the last few months. This is how full my Escape is and I still have one more pick up to make!
And now for all the Thank You's!!!

Linking up with Crazy Mom Quilts- Finish it up Friday
and
How awesome that you got everything ready to go before Christmas. After sending the quilt I decided it was time to do a little closet and dresser clearing out. I sent a large donation box to the adress you had listed in a previous post. What a great thing you and your family are doing!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the donation box! I was telling Mary Ann about your quilt today and she said you sent a box to her too. Check out the Families Working Together Facebook page in the next couple of weeks, Mary Ann will be adding pictures of the kids getting their quilts. I think they are giving out the kids Christmas boxes next weekend...
DeleteLovely fence shot! Some kids will be very happy.
