"Meadow Frogs" is the name I gave to my Quilt for Kids quilt. I wonder about the little person who will need the comfort of this quilt and hope they do well. I felt a bit sad to know that this quilt is going to a child who is sick and hurting, but glad to contribute something snuggly and soft to help ease their pain. I am happy to see that several other quilters have ordered a kit, pieced and quilted their quilt and are looking to do more.

Thank you Quilts for Kids, this was a fun quilt to make!

PS: I added Nap Time for Pooh and Friends to the package. :-D

And the label for this little quilt.

I've been quiet, but busy sewing a couple of fun quilt tops ~ something to keep my mind off the snow and cold. Yes, Carol, it's still cold and we still have a lot of snow...yippy! I combined a couple of quilt design ideas to come up with a way to use this honey bun and charm pack.

Kelly Guy at Charming Chatter had a drawing during her Valentines Sewing Day Party and my name was drawn. Soon as I had the fabric in hand I made this quilt. Thanks Kelly!

I also received my kit from the Downy Quilts for Kids organization last week. I'm itching to quilt up the Valentine Quilt, but this quilt needs to be in the mail next week so it'll come first. The little frogs are CUTE!

My quilt holder has recovered from his latest surgery and is back on the job. :-D

Karen at Quilts A Lot! won the drawing for the Winter Sampler pattern! :-D

Winter Sampler

Prairie Grove Peddler is the designer of this happy Winter Sampler. I finished it up at about 36" x 38" and it is quilted within an inch of it's life!. I was practicing my free-motion quilting so it's pretty heavily quilted, but it looks okay! This sampler is one of the projects that I've been meaning to get around to for oh, say six years now.

And now that I am finished with this quilt I am giving the pattern away ~ on February 10th. I'll draw a name if more than one person expresses an interest. :-D

Hope this weekend finds you quilting!

My friend Carol brought Quilts For Kids to my attention today. Like Carol, I think this is a very worthwhile project ~ quilts that comfort sick kids. I ordered my kit tonight. Curious? Click on Quilts for Kids. If you aren't up for making a quilt there are other projects that you might like to help with. :-D
