Another Top Complete

Here is another quilt top completed thanks to Pat over at http://www.501quiltblocks.com/
her contribution to this project was the beautiful quilt squares, which made it easy for me to add the borders and strips.

Tomorrow this will get the batting, back and hopefully be quilted and bound.

I love the fact that the orangey red strips and borders bring out the color of the flowers with the blue, so happy I had something in my stash to work with.
 

I Love Collaboration Quilts

I finished this one up this evening. It is collaboration quilt #3. The top and back which a super soft pink flannel were donated by Claudia Pate and I did the quilting, binding and the label!

 

Anyone Having Mailing Issues

I am very concerned that one of the quilters had 2 of her packages come back to her this week and I am praying this is not going to start happening.

I am not sure what the problem is, but it does appear to be a USPS issue.

The first one returned went to the address in Prescott and came back with not at this address or addressee unknown and since I was specifically asked by one of the family members to send this to the fire house, I am quite concerned.

The other went to the firefighters union in LA and came back simply marked undeliverable.  When I called today to get any information my call was routed to automated voice mail.

I have sent several out but not gotten anything back and I am sure you would have said something.

So in case it is just the USPS, please mark your packages with the address I send you exactly as I send it to you. Do not but the family member on the first or second line, it belongs on the bottom with:

ATTN:  For Travis Carter Family or
ATTN: Mary Jones, Joe Jones Mother

Remember, if you have any issues, please let me know!

Quilt Collaboration for Maddie

Many of you have UFO's laying around and someday you will get to them, I know how many times I said that over a quilt that was in the making for more than six years.

Then there are those of you who love making quilts, but seriously dislike the whole quilting process and make them and donate them to others or are on time constraints.

Whatever the reason you have then laying around, when I sent out an all call several quilters stepped up and said we can send you tops and backs.

The following top and back was sent to me from Claudia Pate of Tennessee, I added the batting, binding, quilting and designed the firefighting shield label!

This will be sent to Maddie Woyjeck, the sister of Kevin Woyjeck! 

Two Beauties from Angel Debra

I just cannot say how blessed I am to know all of you dedicated quilters that are reaching out to these families and how blessed they will be as well.

These are the 2 latest from Debra

What I love is the colors in both of these and that they just say warmth and caring!

These will be heading off when done to the parents of Eric Marsh and Robert Caldwell!  What an amazing blessing!
