Second Round of Just One Slab Quilts






























Wow!

So many volunteers helping get this round of quilts together. You have no idea how much their help is appreciated. Thank you so much Linda, Carla, Kathy, Jen, and Becca. Not to mention all the volunteers picking up sets of slabs to sew together from Traditional Pastimes and Addie's.

Right now there is a backlog of 100 quilt tops, or so, making its way to quilters. I've got a stack returned and awaiting binding. More are out with long armers and more will be going. Oh, and did I mention that slabs are STILL arriving?

Wow.

It's so exciting to see updates about this. What an amazing project it has turned out to be!

I like how each quilt looks different, depending on the colour choices. This looks like a huge task -- do you have help with the binding?

I love the variety in these! So inspiring to see how different they can all look.

AWesome! Haven't seen my slab but love the quilts. Truly an inspiring group effort, which of course, would never have happened without you Cheryl. Great idea, beautifully implemented! Thanks so much!

I'm curious how you decide who the quilts will go to? Is there an organization that will take care of that part?

Just wanted to let you know I bought your book sunday morning quilts, and love it! I was even more thrilled to learn you were a local author! And what an inspiration for flood quilts. Hats off to you for your vision of how you could provide a direction for others to help.

There is something amazing about creating a piece of a quilt, sending it off in the mail, and then seeing, on the magic that is the Internet, proof of it's existence continuing on in another part of the world. Simply amazing.
