Quilt a day #29 and a giveaway!

The giveaway is at the bottom! This morning I finished binding the two latest quilts for the Downy Quilts for Kids project. I had a girl here for 4-H sewing this afternoon and decided to tackle my linen closet. First is the photo of all three of the Quilts for Kids I made, one I showed a couple days ago. The other two have different backings, but other than that the same fabric. I am mailing them off tomorrow.I started pulling quilts out of my linen closet and had this mound and still bunches on the shelves as indicated by these two pics. Now the almost finished closet! I need to refold sheets and pillowcases on the shelf above (there are actually two shelves up, the top has REALLY old blankets and pillows and stuff. I have quilts categorized by Fall, Christmas, Valentines, patriotic, mini, large quilts, and small quilts in several piles.

Now the giveaway! Guess how many quilted items are on these shelves! Post a comment or if you don't have a google account send me an e-mail to jlhuffman@cpcinternet.com . I will draw a winner Saturday if I remember! Remember I like to make minis so the piles could be deceiving!

Quilt a day #27 and a mess!

Some unexpected things happened today but at least I looked at the linen closet I need to reorganize. I also got out my box of strips and I'm contemplating making string quilts for charity.

I did finish a baby quilt this morning and pieced two more baby quilts so I have made some quilting progress. I sent for a kit from the Downy company and it was all precut and and very easy to sew. They send the backing also. This is the finished baby quilt. It's got square corners really!Here is a picture of my overflowing strips box. I think I can make a couple quilts out of it! This is a VERY embarrassing picture! This is my walk-in linen closet in it's current state. It started at Christmas (those quilts are on the bottom of the heap) and for some odd reason it's just exploded. I will take an after picture when I get it done this week.
