Charity Quilts 31, 32, 33 & 34 of 52 πŸ’

I'm making 52 quilts in 2018 for Jack's Basket, where babies with Down syndrome are celebrated. πŸŽ‰

In June I quilted two quilts side-by-side on my longarm. In July I quilted three quilts side-by-side. This month I went for the max and quilted all 4 quilts side-by-side on my longarm:


That means they are all four quilted with the same design, Egg Carton--one of my favorite modern quilting designs.

Each quilt is made from 4 fat quarters, as you can see in this quilt, number 31 for this year (hedgehogs!):

And this month they all have the same backing, this fuchsia print:

Here's quilt number 32:

And the 4 fat quarters:

Quilt number 33:

Here are the 4 fat quarters that make up this quilt. Notice one of them is Lady Slipper fabric, the Minnesota state flower:

And quilt number 34:

A close-up of the 4 fat quarters that it is made from:

Check out the charity quilt link-up at Slice of Pi Quilts on the last day of each month in 2018. Be sure to link up any charity projects you've been working on this month.

Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy

    I agree with Laura that you are doing a great job of staying on track with your goal! Sure like that quilt design, and those little prints in each quilt are really fun!

    Thanks for contributing to such a nice charity. Our son just happens to have DS. I've never heard about this charity. I'll be looking it up. Thanks for the link. LOVE the egg carton design.

    I just love these quilts, the pattern and that you can now quilt them four at a time with the wonderful meandering pattern. Have you run out of fat quarters yet?

    So many great fabrics in these, Nancy! Those tiny raindrops are a great combination with the Lady Slippers. Can't grow flowers without rain :)

    The quilts all look great. And how smart to add the quilting all at the same time.

    Wow, I've only ever done 2 side-by-side, imagine doing 4! Very impressive, but so efficient isn't it? Now if only there was 4-at-a-time binding!

    I love these more and more each time I see them and you are doing a great job on keeping up! That quilting design, egg carton, is a gorgeous one. Do you bind by all machine? That sure is a lot of binding!

    I'm so impressed with how great this pattern looks in every combination! I was given a huge tub of fabric over the weekend (a friend's mom was cleaning out supplies she decided she wasn't going to use) and there are several bundles of 4 fat quarters--I immediately thought of you and this pattern! I particularly like the hedgehogs and the lady slipper fabrics. Great blankets and the recipients are sure to love them.

    Are you going to aim for 5 next time? All the quilts look great. It's great seeing them in so many different fabric combinations.

    Wow! You are so talented with that long arm! Hey! Did I spy more Daydreams? I love your color combinations!

    I'm so impressed with the amount of quilts you have been cranking out! When you load multiple quilts on the longarm like that, i assume the back is the same for all the quilts? that's pretty neat!
