Cool news about the twin quilts!

I sent the twin quilts to Quilts Beyond Borders, http://quiltsbeyondborders.wordpress.com/ and they asked if they could auction them to raise money for their charity.
 
 
They'll be on display at their booth at the Houston International Quilt Festival (Oct 31 - Nov 3). That's so exciting! If you're at the show, please check them out and take some time to learn about QBB.
 
I did plan on them going to kids so, of course, I'm working on 2 more quilts to take their place. Stay tuned for some sneak peeks of the works in progress.

My Quilt at Houston International!

The picture at the top of my blog shows two quilts that I made for the charity, Quilts Beyond Borders. The pink, orange and black quilt is for a young lady "graduating" from an orphanage in Russia. The green one with the orange ribbon will be on display at QBB's booth at the Houston International Quilt Festival and auctioned off for their charity!! I feel so honored. Here's the link showing some additional pics and info (it's the August 20, 2012 post):  http://quiltsbeyondborders.wordpress.com/2012/08/.  Check out all the links on Carla's blog that describe her cool charity. Maybe you'd like to make a quilt to bring a smile to one of "her" orphans.
