Quilts

Here are a couple more quilts for the St Judes Children, like I said, Baptist Fan and the Clam Shell is just classic on any quilt! The Crazy Patches are fun to put together, these were done during one of the Bee's that the Sin City Strippers held. The work that gets done on one of those day is absolutely amazing! They meet at nine to set up and by ten there are a minimum of 5 stations set up, piecing tops, ironing, binding, cutting, applying binding, backings and then there are the tables set up with orphan blocks that have been donated and then a table with different size yardage to use in putting those together while the fabric for backings is in a different location.

And that is when you see some of the talent of these ladies who take those orphan blocks and put together a beautiful creation! Then there is the potluck lunch, and chocolate! I walk away being encouraged, inspired and just grateful for the hobby that I love so much!
