Every year my quilt guild donates a raffle quilt to the church where we meet. This year we are using MyWebQuilter to design the quilt!
One of our guild members had many Thangles blocks that she made years ago and never used. She donated these blocks to our guild. This is the second quilt that we will make with the blocks. We raised over $700 for charity on the first quilt we made with these blocks.
Here is the picture from MyWebQuilter of the quilt we will be creating.
We only had 17 Thangles blocks remaining, so I made three additional blocks this weekend to create the center part of the quilt. I am in the process of creating the 4 additional Thangles blocks for the border corner blocks. I did not have any of the special Thangles papers to make the half square triangles. I just cut squares, sewed the diagonal and trimmed them. Here is more information on Thangles.
This is a fun project. I plan to purchase the fabric for the borders and setting blocks this week. Sewing will start at our January meeting.
