The NURTURE circle (do. Good Stitches) quilters have been busy lately and the quilts have been coming in! I posted two quilts just a couple weeks ago and now have two more.
This cool scrappy star quilt was assembled and quilted by Kat C. and she did a great job. I love the colors she chose! The pattern is the Casual Link block from Twiggy and Opal. Another version of this quilt might be in my future; I have wanted to make 8-pointed stars for a while.
This pretty pink quilt was assembled and quilted by Dhia, she asked for a variety of heart blocks from us and did a brilliant job assembling them into this large quilt ready to wrap someone in love! If you've sewn anything for charity recently please link up below.

ReplyDeleteTwo more gorgeous quilts! Your circle is doing fantastic work. I'm going to go check out the Casual Link block; it looks fun.
ReplyDeleteTwo more beautiful quilts. Seeing all the links you post makes me want to sew for every charity but time just won't allow that. I love seeing what others are doing for so many people in need.
