Saturday when I was at the
Attic Window Quilt Shop taking a bag class, Laurie Schoebridge stopped in with this quilt. I was so thrilled to see it as the blocks were free on this blog several years ago. You may remember that Barb of
Bejeweled Quilts and I shared these blocks with our readers. She made the quilt in appliqué and I did my reindeer blocks in Redwork, as Laurie did.
Check out this close-up of one of Laurie’s blocks. It is so cute! You can’t see it in the picture but she also added some silver metallic thread to the snowflakes. She did a fantastic job of making this fun quilt and I was overjoyed that I was in the shop when she stopped by. You can still get the patterns for these reindeer blocks by going
here or
here. However, there is now a small fee for the patterns.
ALL of the money made from the sale of these patterns goes to
Judy and Clint Madsen for the Children of Romania. I hope you will consider making this quilt or making the blocks into pillows and contributing to this very worthy cause.
A special thank you to Laurie for sharing this quilt with us. I love it!
