I am blown away by how many of you have contacted me to say they made blocks for my donation quilt project. The blocks are now coming in daily and I am sorting them into little stacks for future designs. I have already made one quilt (that I hope to share on Friday) and the second top is just about complete.
My goal was to make about 6 quilts with these blocks but I think there are going to be far more! Thanks so much!!
I am so glad I took advantage of Connecting Threads recent sale and bought some fabrics for backings. I think I got between 4 and 8 yards of these prints. Hopefully they will be enough. If not, I know I have a bunch of navy-blue backs which will work in my stash.
I am really liking how these colors are working out. Being the first block drive, I wanted to choose something gender neutral to fill the pipeline with quilts that would work for everyone.
If you donated blocks, be sure and check out my Friday posts - that is where I usually post my finishes so you can look for your blocks. I hope to make my first delivery of quilts at the end of December so 2023 starts out with lots of love and comfort!

Oh so fun!!!! Love all the little blocks!
Oh wow, that's wonderful. I look forward to seeing all the quilts you are able to make and donate and hooray for fabric sales to get large yardages for backings!
