Vibrant and Vivacious - Project Quilting challenge 11.6

For the final challenge of this season of Project Quilting, Trish gave us the theme of Vibrant and Vivacious.

Since we are trying to stay home as much as possible, doing our part to reduce the spread of the Covid 19 virus, I had all sorts of ambitious ideas.

But as so often happens, life had other plans and I wasn't able to start my project until Saturday, giving me just one day to complete the whole thing.


I recently purchased the pattern "A Gathering" by Barbara Persing and I thought one of her quails might make a good choice for something vibrant.   I changed my quail up a little bit, but it is based on a block from this pattern.

Give it Away - Project Quilting challenge 11.5

The latest challenge for Project Quilting is "Give it Away".  We can make anything we want, but the finished item has to be given away.  I loved this idea and immediately thought about making gifts for the wonderful women who work at the Senior Day Club where my mother goes once a week.  They take such great care of her, and all the other  and I'm excited to give them something tangible to show my appreciation.

Ultimately I will make a total of three of these, but here is the first one, and my entry for the current challenge.

Thank you to Maria, Vanessa and Alice for all you do!!!
