Today was a blast! I had the opportunity to sew with some of my dear friends of the Central Jersey Modern Quilt Guild - we are making 20 baby quilts for the Center for Great Expectations, a local charity.
Guild members and local sewists donated fabric to our guild for this first round of charity sewing. We mixed in some solids with prints to calm them down a bit! It was mindless sewing but still hard work - I'm tired now!

We will finish the quilts by November and donate them before the (hopefully not as crazy/cold as last year) winter. Thanks to all the guild members for your help - it is such a pleasure to partake in sewing with all of you! One of the best decisions I ever made was to attend that first guild meeting.
