Wonky Log Cabin
54 x 72
It's a finish!
This one has heart!
I made the top earlier this year and used low volume strings around a 2 inch pink center for this one.
I trimmed the blocks to 9.5 inches.
I quilted it with three petaled flowers on my DSM (Brother PQ1500SL) in white thread.
Binding is pastel pink. I sewed this binding down by machine.
The backing. It too has heart(s).
And sew on...

CELEBRATE! (my word of the year)
July 19 - 44 (or more) in 2024! I've met my goal! At the beginning of the year I set a goal to finish 44 or more donation quilts in 2024. You can see my goal over on the side bar. This low volume wonky log cabin makes donation quilt finish 45. I've actually finished 46 quilts this year but one of them I'm keeping around in case I need a gift for family or friends. I guess that actually still qualifies for a donation quilt but for purposes of my goal I put it in the gift category. Most of the quilts were UFOs but for the first time this year I've also finished a quite a few quilts that aren't UFOs. I hope to keep up that trend. Also, so far this year I've already donated 42 quilts kiddo quilts from ones I've had on hand. Thank you to all my friends who have sent me supplies to help me complete this goal. Now that I've met that goal I'm feeling like I can give myself permission to work on a few of my own quilts and then see how many more than 44 quilts I can finish for donation. I have a tab for quilt finishes this year at the top of this blog.
I SO love this one. What a peaceful quilt it is. It will bring sweet dreams to the princess sleeping under this one. Congratulations on achieving your goal. That was a big task but you made it and you still have many months to go before the end of the year. You amaze me. Bravo! ;^)

ReplyDeleteSweet quilt and the heart makes it that much sweeter.
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday Cathy :-)
You know, maybe I should put a category in my blog for quilt finishes. Would make them easier to find. Lovely heart quilt, so tender. I have no where that many quilts done. I think I am the slowest quilter.
ReplyDeleteHurray, Cathy, for exceeding your goal. Such a delightful quilt. It will be loved some little (or maybe big) girl. And, yes, you should take a break and work on one of your own quilts for a bit.
