A beautiful quilt from a Bunny Hill pattern (sorry it's a bit blurry)
a closer look....
I love the vines on this one...
Another beauty, this one in Kaffe Fassett
Amber doesn't look this blurry in real life. I love the fabrics she chose for the flower wall hanging.
More gorgeousness by Amber. I believe this is a Fig Tree pattern.
The back of Amber's quilt. Fantastic quilting!
Cozy flannels...
Our friend from Riley Blake brought this little boy's dream...
And Janessa brought an adorable baby girl quilt.
After the show and tell portion of our evening, Kate from Helping Hands for Haiti spoke about her recent trip to Haiti. Her group helps rehabilitate Haitians with disabilities by providing medical care, therapy, and much needed medical devices such as wheelchairs, crutches, and prosthetic limbs. Her obvious love for these people was heart warming. Our quilt guild has now donated about 50 quilts for Kate to take with her to Haiti. Each person on her team is allowed to take 100 lbs. with them, so they are using these quilts to wrap medical supplies. Because of the Haitian climate and these weight restrictions, none of the quilts have batting.
Janessa has a great post on her blog about Haiti, so if you have time, go check it out. And if you would like to donate quilts, I would be happy to get you the information. All quilts should be about crib sized and with no batting. And of course, Helping Hands for Haiti is always thankful for financial donations.
