Although I'm not a member of the Bradenton Quilt Guild, I took home two charity quilts that needed to be squared up and bound. I finished them both last night.
I bought some royal blue fabric on sale at JoAnn's yesterday that I
thought would work for both quilts, and it did. Love that! These are
for trauma victims. The police officers keep a couple in their cars for
use in an emergency situation. Someone in the guild volunteers to sew
the tops, some quilt and others bind. They are small lap quilts.
I really like the all-blue one. Very calming. I did the binding completely by machine and it worked out very well.
Today, I'm sewing over at a friend's house, working on fabric bowls. We each bought the book and saw a demo at the Sarasota Quilt Guild Show last year. It will be good to cross another project off the 26 Winter Projects List!
