BAM is collecting wheelchair quilts for the veteran’s hospital in Palo Alto. We had planned a sew Day, but our Sew Day had to be cancelled, so I made one top at Super Sew Day and am working on another one.

We are all working to the same pattern from Sunshine Linus.

Both quilts use some Moda fabrics I won as part of the UFO challenge. As per the pattern, I cut the fabric up into 9.5 inch squares and sewed them together.

I had enough squares for at least one other, which I am working on now.

I didn’t include a back for the first one, but will sew a back for the second one. I have to sew this together first.

Someone else will quilt it. I didn’t cut off the corners as I thought the longarming would be easier if that step was done after quilting.
