Not My Donation Top

The other day I had a sew day with Tim and Cyndi. Cyndi was cleaning out projects while we worked on our own projects. She came up with some pieces from classes she didn’t think she would use, but she wasn’t sure wanted to toss.

I told her she should add some borders and hand it in as a donation quilt. The next thing I knew, she and Tim were cutting up shards and sewing them back together. The quilt looks great! And there is a project weight off Cyndi’s shoulders.

One thing that reminds me that more brains are better than one is this piece.

I probably would have just sewed that blue solid on to make the quilt top big enough. Cyndi wanted a bit of improv piecing in there, so Tim added it. See above.

It really makes the quilt look like the design was thought through. I am really pleased these pieces will end up with someone who needs a quilt.
