Back when I first started quilting, I was involved in a number of block swaps. These three quilts are the results of a 2005 swap hosted by Cotton Patch Quilt Shoppe in Tawas City, Michigan. 35 quilters participated in this swap. The blocks sat for years until I determined how to set them.
I opted to split them into 3 groups and pulled an orphan block from my orphan block box so I could make 3 quilts with 12 blocks each.
That’s my swap block in the bottom center.
The blocks came from all over the world. The top left block is from Australia.
This quilt has my extra block. It’s the top right.
All three of the quilt tops were completed the week of May 25th. They were quilted the same week on my Innova. I used the computerized Edge-to-Edge pattern All Leaf Simple by Sweet Dreams Quilting Studio. My thread was Glide Basil. The batting Legacy 80/20. They were finished using Susie’s Magic Binding. The quilts each finished at 60 x 76 prior to washing. The 3 quilts were donated to Hope House via the Candlelight Quilters in Raytown, Missouri. Due to Covid-19 I dropped them off at Show-Me-Quilting.
