Sunshine


I added a HST border to a round robin I'm participating in with a group of Sunshine ladies. For the HSTs I raided my 3.5 inch scrap bin for pieces close to the colors of that striped fabric.  And in the scrap chunk bin I found a piece of gray/black/white I could use.  Now it goes on to Maine for the next round. 


In case you are not familiar with Sunshine Online Quilt Guild  we are a group of charity quilters that support both Quilts Beyond Borders and Wrap-a-Smile, a Rotaplast partner. 

And speaking of Rotaplast...I was delighted to spot this quilt I made in 2015 on a little one after surgery in Arusha Tanzania.  See the fourth photo down in the blog post.  You can mostly only see the light green backing; however, I spotted the tree fabric in the top border and knew instantly it was a quilt I made.

Looks like that gray, black, and white fabric is perfect for adding to that round robin project! I bet that was a wonderful feeling to see a little one in Africa cuddled up in a quilt you made. Lots of comfort there!

How lovely and rewarding to spot your quilt being used. Those medical teams do amazing work and the patients benefit from an additional quilty hug.

That must have been very satisfying to see your quilt in use, Cathy. I'm sure that little fellow treasures it.

Seeing your quilt on the Rotaplast site makes me 90% as happy as seeing one of my own would! Yay!!
