Skip's t-shirts #2
This is the second of three quilts for Skip's family. The cornerstones are from a pair of green shorts. This one has leopard print fabric on the back for Mary. She came up a great label for the back - she spelled out her dad's name vertically - then came up with words that describe her dad - one for each letter of his name. It's 6'5w x 6'8h and has a rod pocket for hanging. You can go here to see the first one.

Golf Towels

Kid's Games Challenge Quilt
Our guild had a challenge to generate charity quilts for the children's organization that we support. We were given a fat quarter of the black print fabric that runs the diagonal in the photo, and had to create a quilt that showed kids playing games, or portrayed games, or was a game itself. I bought fabric with differet balls on them - basketballs, soccer balls, baseballs, footballs, and of course, golf balls and tees. The top and bottom borders are from some leftover Las Vegas fabric - representing the ADULT games!! The quilts were presented at the July meeting and voted on, with the winners getting gift cards to area quilt shops. 40 x 52
