A finish and a treat

Hands2Help was a great success this year with over 117 quilters making quilts to share and well over 500 quilts made! I believe the numbers are still being tallied. Many vendors also supported the effort by providing gifts for those making quilts. Sarah has had the big job of getting those off to the quilters and my treat came this week with a sponsored gift by MODA :-)
A cute bag with some mini charm packs inside.

Thank you, MODA and thank you, Sarah for all the inspiration!

The finish this week comes from sewing up some beautiful fabric from Robin Pickens called Painted Meadow.  This fabric is so cheery to sew and I just plain had a wonderful sewing with it :-)  I chose a pattern called Twinkle by Sew Be It. I bought this pattern years ago and I'm sorry I couldn't find a link for it on the web. 

I modified the size of the pieces a bit so I could take full advantage of a layer cake. It ended up about 62" X 72".  Luke helped me a bit with modeling but even with cookies...he would not smile despite being a happy boy.

I love these big coneflowers and fat bumble bees. 
Hope you are all healthy and safe. Thank you for visiting!

The second HOPE baby quilt

A finish of this second HOPE quilt (designed by Gudrun of GE Designs) was quickly done using some large freehand flowers for the quilt design.
The photo shoot however turned out to be more about Marianne =^..^=
She is doing so well these days I'm having fun with her.
We started out inside as she was still having her morning nap.

Interrupted

And on out to the porch

And a miracle happened with these quilts...I remembered to sew labels in!

So another fun year of Hands2Help is (washed and) in the mail and on it's way to the Little Lambs Foundation for Kids. Linking here to Confessions of a Fabric Addict for more quilty shares.
