A Comfort Quilt

 I finally got to blogging again!  I finished a comfort quilt from a work day at my small quilt guild, Hearts and Hands of Elgin County, challenged us to use one of the three yard patterns from the popular books.  We usually use 1 1/4 yards to make them a bit larger.  These quilts are donated to the local hospital where the chemo patients get to choose one from a variety of quilts.  They bring a lot of comfort at a stressful time. 

I chose these three prints (they are more pink than the photo shows!).  I couldn't find a three yard quilt pattern to use as I didn't want to cut that beautiful floral fabric too small so used it as a focus print and just added borders.

                               


I used my new Juki machine to quilt it with funky flowers.

The back is actually a light blue!

 
This picture at our guild meeting shows the back colour a lot better.

Congrats on the finish! I'm trying to get back into blogging (and reading blogs) again, too.
