Can you believe that there are still some Rail Fence quilts to be completed?
For this quilt, I just alternated the direction of the blocks.
I still had quite a few blocks left and this layout requires the most blocks - 168 to be exact.
These patchwork quilts really are inviting when completed. I thought about adding a border on one of these but I am pretty much out of brown fabric in my stash! Yay!
(And I need to keep in mind I need backings for future quilts.)
I was able to use two large cuts for the backing - both were donated by a friend. For the quilting, I went with a simple meander in a brown thread.
I still have more blocks to sew together. How many more do you think I will be able to complete?

11 quilts already! Gosh! That's amazing. Quilters are so generous. Kudos to you too for all your time invested in this. Bravo! ;^)
Another beauty!
Hmmm, I'm going to guess 3 more quilts. I'm certainly impressed by them all and how much work you have put into this!
I can’t believe how cohesive all the blocks from different people are playing so nicely together in these beautiful quilts. They have all turned out so beautifully. You are doing such a wonderful thing to start this initiative in your local community.
This is an amazing project that you are doing! Kudos for spreading the love!
Another pretty rail fence quilt! Love the colors.
These quilts have really turned out to be fantastic! I have to say - I am (im)patiently waiting for the next block drive!
