The Lake Gaston Piecemakers Quilt Guild is a very busy and prolific guild. The members are always doing something interesting. Sometimes we teach each other a specific skill (mine is paper piecing). Other times we start a project and pass it off to the next person, as happened with the Round Robin, above. This delightfully serene quilt was finished by Myrt, who brought it to me to quilt. It will go to the outpatient chemo unit at the local hospital. The backing is the softest flannel! Someone will surely welcome the warmth and comfort of this quilt as he or she sits in that recliner receiving his/her meds.
While my IQ was chugging away during each row of the pantograph on the Round Robin quilt, I was able to finish appliqueing the bottom panel for my Lucinda Brodie border. Today I will assemble the rest of the quilt and put it on my quilting frame.
I don't think I will have any time to do another project while quilting Lucinda since it's all going to be custom, but in case I do, here are the fabrics for the next small endeavor. These will go into a block, which will be joined by other blocks from other IQ support group members, and will become a very special quilt for one of our team, who is dealing with breast cancer surgery, chemo, and radiation.
