Table scraps challenge

 Remember someone saying they were going to avoid

furry woodland creatures and  get some quilting done? 

Well, this huge squirrel popped into my sewing room!

Combined with a necessary evil, (tidying up the block bank),

there are now 9 wheel chair quilt tops in my sewing room!

Who knew piecing orphan blocks together would be sew 

addicting!  Probably everyone! My goal for next month 

will be to source some zippers for the back pockets and 

get them all quilted up!

So on with the top show!

First I pulled down the block bank. It is full and heavy. 

Did a little sorting and made a huge mess 

but still had room to layout just one. 

Have you heard of the potato chip blocks?  

This acted the same and 

I just couldn't stop.  I used some like colors,

 and groups of blocks that seemed to  meld.

Here is number 1:

Then I came across some practice embroidery pieces

I was gifted.

 

These wheelchair quilts will go off 

to long term care facilities as Christmas gifts for

those who would only get staff purchased socks. 

Each quilt will have a secret block on the back,

just to make it a little more special. 

On with the show!

Yes , I really had a lot of color family 

strips in that basket!  I am sure some 

of my quilting buddies will recognize a few blocks!

The plainer bottoms will get some grid quilting to 

dress them up!  The binding will be a bit

bolder also, to frame and accent some of the 

lighter colored blocks.

These should really brighten up the lunchroom and

keep everyone cozy!
