Friend's on Friday-Renee

Renee's sent me this antique quilt top that was pieced by hand and machine.

To the best of my knowledge it was pieced using shirts mainly from the 30's & 40's. 

Renee requested that I not quilt several of the blocks so that she could 

include some hand quilting.

You can see the nine patch blocks with pins that I did not quilt.

It was a challenge to quilt where several of the blocks had

 been cut while adding borders along with lining up hatching.

But I  think it added to the time period of the quilt.

Wonder where this was created, when and by whom?

By the time I finished I had a imaginary story going on in my head.

Warm Your Heart! (Free Pattern)

56 children will be warmer this winter.

60 children in-need will receive a gift in a handmade pillow case this Christmas.

103 animals in the local shelters can snuggle on a bed this winter.

80 "Meals On Wheels" recipients will receive a beautiful place-mat with their 

Thanksgiving dinner.

Every year, Novembers meeting is a pot luck dinner for Thanksgiving.

A meeting that is a bit out of the norm.

Last night our Charity committee held a "Parade Of Quilts" so everyone could see what incredible items made over the year.

Also a representative from CASA was there to speak and collect the quilts for the children. 

The other items will be delivered all over this week. 

I wish I had photos but I was helping with the parade!

Here is one of my contributions!

A child's blanket and pillowcase.

This is a great project!

Here is the Free Pattern for the Quick Strippe Quilt

This is a great time to try out some free motion!
