Comfort Quilt time

 

Today was the fourth Tuesday, which means Comfort Quilt day at Quilt Revolution in Gig Harbor!



So far, the Comfort Quilt Project has donated almost 1,300 quilts to local breast cancer patients. I just popped in for an hour to iron and take photos because my sewing supplies are still in boxes. It was a colorful day. Here's a glimpse:




 

Uplifting words were quilted into this one.
 




Naturally, when you get quilters together there are always some other nifty stitched goodies. Below is a quilted and embellished cuff made by Audrey and a "snap purse" bought from a quilter in Tacoma.

The outside of the store was as colorful as the inside, thanks to gorgeous flowers planted by quilter (and fellow Feet and Forker) Nancy.



Have a colorful day
