I don't know if I've mentioned this on the blog yet so my apologies if this is a repeat.
I've recently turned 50 and since it is such a big year, like all zero years, I've decided to do something just as big. I've decided to make and donate 50 items to charity. Pretty big huh? If you think about it though 50 items is just one item a week with a two week buffer built in just in case.
This little preemie diaper shirt is one of the things I will be donating. You can find out more information about the organization and ways to donate on their Twenty-five and Four website. I've recently been certified so now I can start assembly line sewing these little shirts.
I've also decided to make 50 or 52 baby quilts this year. I have no immediate plans but they will most likely be donated to Project Linus.
The greens is this top are a bit darker. My craftroom doesn't always have the best light.
These greens are muted also. This top turned out beautifully. Perfect for a sweet little princess.
This top was donated to me and I added the blue borders to make it a bit wider.
I've been having fun not only making the quilt tops but also finding fun and quick patterns to try. Sometimes I just wing it and I'm always surprised to see the finished quilt top.
