five inch fun!

Here's my donation to Margaret's hope chest.

There was a note about this worthy cause on

Amanda Jean's blog and I joined in!

It IS bright...so I hope that the little girl receiving this

will enjoy the bright colors.
I'm hoping to quilt it today and send it off soon!

I had a lot of 5" squares already cut.

This block was my inspiration for ALL that color!

I didn't realize it would turn out so GREEN...

but I think I like it. :)

And here's WHY I wanted to give a quilt.

This quilt was given to me.

When I graduated from high school and set off for college,

the ladies at my church gave me this wonderful gift!

I loved having this on my bed as I moved away from

home and all that was familiar.

It gave me a lot of comfort and is probably the biggest reason

I like to give quilts to people.

Aren't all those colors wonderful?



You can see some of that retro fabric!

Let's all join in and give a quilt to someone.
It sure will make their day!
