Wheelchair Quilts for Council On Aging

I completed my donation for Council On Aging.  I made three quilts (two are pictured here).


 Always great to have a quilt that features a focus fabric.  Love the butterfly print!


Wonky Stars is a scrappy quilt using light and dark scrap pieces of fabric from the big bin in my sewing room.

The quilts measure 38" X 45" and were free motion machine quilted.  

I tried a new shape on this quilt.  There are ovals with a "kick out" at the end of the third circle.  Thanks Angela Walters for the video tutorial.  Also did Ribbon Candy on the border but the matching thread hides the stitching.



Wonky Stars Quilt has swirls and swirls and swirls.  


The border of this quilt has Wishbone stitches.  Enjoy doing the wishbones but just can't seem to get the corners, so I made each corner with the oval shapes.  I think it looks good.



All the quilting is free motion on my Baby Lock Cresendo.  Really do hope that the Senior who receives these quilts will enjoy the love that is wrapped in the binding.
