Oh, happy day!! More community quilts are coming your way!! Today’s quilts are from Ray…
He writes:
“I finished another community quilt to share. The top was from an anonymous blog reader that you forwarded to me.
When this quilt came in the mail there was some discussion on the blog as to what pattern it was. The consensus was that the pattern from Kim Brackett’s Scrap-Basket Sensations book. It is “Flowers for Nana Girl” on page 21 of the book. She designs lots of quilts that use jelly rolls and other precuts. You can find her HERE on Amazon.
The next quilt…
is also from Ray. He writes:
“Here is the other quilt that I just finished. Much the same as the other string quilt I finished except it is 47 x 56 and does not have a border.
I used flannel instead of batting on this one as well. I also went back to my good old reliable computer patterns and selected a stipple pattern but opened it up as big as I could get it.
I can say thanks enough to Jo and the Cresco ladies for another top to finish and donate to Hope Healthcare.”
I love both of these quilts. It always amazes me when people donate such beautiful tops. I wrote a post last week that talks about a journey or destination when it comes to crafting and quilting. I think people who donate pieced tops love the journey. I’m so thankful they do!! So many people benefit from the sharing of their talent!!
Beautifully quilted Ray. Jo I think you are right about enjoying the journey from plans to finished tops. I love that journey too.
Ray is an extraordinary artist! I admire his quilting so much! I’m still apprehensive about anything fancier than straight line quilting, but y’all are sure getting me excited about branching out.
Both quilts are beautiful and beautifully quilted. Thanks again for all the generosity these quilts represent.
