Bonnie's Beautiful Handiwork

Bonnie came over to deliver seven gorgeous quilts last week. Her designs are expertly crafted, including free-form quilting stitches. Bonnie dyes many of her own fabric pieces, so her work is one-of-a-kind, from start to finish!

Here she is with her latest batch:

Baseball quilts, using a diamond motif and diamond-patterned flannel for backing

These were made using some of Bonnie's own fabric designs

Thank you, Bonnie, for sharing your gifts with Katie's Comforters Guild! These quilts are treasures, and will bless the patients who receive them with beauty, artistry and cheer.

12 Quilts + 4 Pillows from Bonnie

Bonnie and I planned to meet this week for a hand-off of quilts and pillows. Bonnie kindly accepted the challenge of taking donated fabric rectangles (from our friend Stacy's local "Buy Nothing" site  - you may have seen these free, open exchanges on facebook) and making them into something for patients to use and enjoy. She came up with the idea of pillows:

In addition to the darling pillows, Bonnie donated 12 of her one-of-a-kind, custom-made quilts:

She thinks of all ages and interests.
