Jzhuskies' projects

I used Jenny's Double-Slice quilt pattern to whip up a quilt for a colleague having a tough time. I wanted it to be bright and happy and wanted to use something from my stash. I had always loved these fabrics, so it was an easy choice. I'd had the fabric so long that I don't even remember the name. It is backed with Shannon. I bound it in red polka dot, which I thought was fun. This one is in the mail! I hope she feels loved when she wraps up in it.

This is the second quilt I have made and donated to an animal rescue that I support. They will be raffling it off later this spring as a fundraiser. I used batiks and solid black. I love the way black makes batiks pop. I used MSQ's T-block pattern, but I assembled the blocks differently to see how it would look. I really like how it turned out. This one was hard to part with.

I was making Jenny's Building Blocks quilt when I made a mistake and cut one extra strip of my layer cake. I went back and made the same cut to the rest of the blocks, then sewed it together. My neighbor had a stroke and I wanted to give her something to cheer her as she recovered. So I quickly finished the quilt, backing it with Shannon fuzzy fabric. I was pretty happy with the way it turned out, and it made my neighbor happy - which was all that mattered.
