Calgary bound

Since the flooding in Calgary a couple of weeks ago, quilters have taken up the cause and made quilt blocks, quilt tops and whole quilts.

Here's a quilt top that I am donating.

A few quilt blocks, and...

a slab (a 15.5" square) in burgundy to be made into a quilt.

They are off to Calgary, to Cheryl, who will make sure they get to the right place. 
My stash is a bit lighter, the scraps went for a good cause and now on I'm on to other sewing.

    That is a good cause; your lovely quilt top and blocks will be well used. I made a few slab blocks to send also. Scraps can be put to good use.

    I also thought this was an awesome project and have a few blocks ready to go. Want to get a few more done - trying to get rid of the scraps - don't have the heart to pitch them! Your quilt top is lovely and will be greatly appreciated.
