WHY CHARITY QUILTS HAPPEN! from Kwilty Pleasures

There are many reasons WHY Charity quilts happen.

I'm gonna tell you how they happens in MY sewing room.

I begin a project and then loose interest or just don't like how it's coming together.

For instance, I can’t even remember when I began working on this Plaidish 2 quilt!

I thought using up my OSU Buckeyes scraps would be the thing to do.

IT'S AN EDIT-ORIAL TEST PATTERN from Kwilty Pleasures

Another pattern test, Another Charity Quilt!

I love pattern testing AND paying it forward!

My favorite quit charity is Stitching Sisters

Columbus OH

A huge effort that to date has made and disturbuted

39,000 quilts, yep three zeros!

At their sewing center I shop their stash

to make the lap size quilts.

I thought this pattern would be a great

Red, white (cream) and blue color combo!

The Editorial Quilt pattern is Jelly Roll friendly,

But I cut strips from FQs.

Strip sets were quick to make.

Blocks appeared just as fast!
