![]() 4026 forum posts 759 photos | Well I have made this very quick charity cot quilt. I tweek the original pattern, which used squares, and used some of the PP swap 4 patches from yonks ago. I found a very bland printed cot quilt top in my stash and used it on the back. I have added 7 blocks to the remaining 4 patches and I am working on quilt no.2. They really are quick! Margaret |

When my stepson married his wife to be asked that the wedding quilt I offered should be all white. It was an interesting exercise. Will see if I can find a photo in my folders here and post. |

![]() 508 forum posts 162 photos 33 articles | Margaret & Sylvia, your quilts are lovely. I have great admiration for those who make a white quilt. It's a great achievement. Not doing much at the moment. I eventually finished my Kaffe Fasset quilt and the picture is still on the camera card waiting to be processed. Hope you are all surviving lock down. I expect the birth rate will explode around Christmas. So glad we didn't book a UK holiday for this year. Maybe things will be back to normal next year. 2020 has not been good so far, I hope it doesn't get any worse. Our quilt group is planning a challenge via our web-site. Don't know how that will go but it's worth a try. Stay safe and carry on stitching. Brenda in OZ |

![]() 4026 forum posts 759 photos | Charity Cot Quilt #2, using the last of the PP swap 4 patches. Didn't enjoy this as much as the first one. With the final cuts you have no controĺ on the final block placements. Back of quilt using 'why did I buy this?' fabric, which has been in my stash for ages. Have found 61 Hug Hearts in UFO pile!
