The church of a Guild sister of mine is making quilts for Afghan refugees in the Birmingham area who left their country with nothing but the clothes on their backs. She has asked that anyone who feels so called to make 12" blocks for the project. I immediately knew that I wanted to help out with this effort. My friend asked for traditional blocks, 12" finished size, in either blue and white, red and white, or autumn colors.
You might recall that my cousin's wife gave me all her quilting fabric and supplies a few months ago. She had a bin of beautiful autumn-colored prints. She had even cut many of them into 1 1/2" strips. So I decided to make Log Cabin blocks using Patsy's Autumn prints, since she already had much of the cutting done. Below is my first block. I don't know how many I'll make. There's enough fabric for a whole quilt's worth I think.

What a beautiful block that Warmie is showing off!
I have some 12" blocks I'd love to send for this project. Would that be okay?
Hugs!
