Pillows and borders!

Yahoo! The borders are on the Ukraine quilt!  It is ready to go to the quilters, for a fast turnaround. I am delighted!!!



Hearts are just my thing, and this one was a free quilt along by Bonnie Hunter, with my twist on setting the blocks together. This was sewn about 2 AM, so it is an insomnia quilt...LOL!




 Look at all these pretty patient pillows that Mary G sent! Thank you so much!  Mary sews the pillows, and sends them to me flat...I stuff them and sew the edge shut.  These have already been distributed to the hospital. I love all the pretty fabrics, don't you? It was hilarious...I had ordered poly fill to stuff the pillows with.  I took the big bag out of the box, and untied the top of the bag...and it started expanding...and growing and growing and growing!!!  I have a huge bag  of stuffing, now, after using all of this!



Have a great day, each of you!

Your quilt is gorgeous! The sashing sets the blocks off perfectly.

I love your Ukraine quilt, beautiful fabric choices and setting.
The pillows are a nice gift for patients and nice that your friend can help by sewing and. you can stuff them, makes shipping easier.

What are the pillow dimensions? I am interested in possibly making some of these to send to you for patients. Also, love the Ukraine quilt...those hearts are beautiful!

Is there a specific way or reason patients use of need these pillows? Just curious as our guild is needing a new charity projectšŸ¤—

Your Ukraine quilt turned out fantastic! I like your setting a lot better than the original one.

I really like your Ukraine quilt. I like it better than the upside-down version Bonnie has. I've had that poly expanding happen before with the same reaction! It seemed I had as much to store as before I opened it!

Very pretty quilt. I have always loved yellow and blue quilts. Hugs

Love your Heart Quilt variation. Just wondering about your patient pillows, are they for when a patient gets a port put in? What are the dimensions that you recommend and do they need a strap on them? Robert, from northern Iowa.

Lots of things going on!

Good morning, or evening to you!!!  I have been sewing pouches of different sizes, and I enjoy filling them with different things and giftin...
