It's A Finish!

It's a finish!

Orphan Fiona

36 x 46

This is an orphan block row quilt. I made the blocks with the gray background a few years ago. 

Someone gave me the Pinwheel blocks many years ago.

I think the top row of orphan blocks came from three different people. I quilted it with swirls of pink thread. 

And there's more pink in the backing and binding. 

Now it is ready for donation!

A few weeks ago the Wrap-A-Smile coordinator ( Ann) sent out a plea for 40-50 "smalls":

"Hope y’all can help! I’m still on the outlook for even more very small, very light-weight children’s quilts for WAS. During the past year I have received an amazing number of gorgeous, beautiful quilts but the majority have been larger and heavier. Rotaplast treats a variety of ages and they need me to pack a mix of sizes. Plus they have weight restrictions on the supply boxes that go by air for the medical missions.

I would love to receive 40-50 “smalls” (36 x 45-ish) by the end of the year. "...Ann
