My next quilt project will benefit my daughter's school. They are having an art auction on Open House night at the end of the month. Each classroom creates a work of art to be auctioned off. My daughter's classroom is doing a quilt. Each of the kids drew a picture of a rainforest animal onto a 7 1/2 inch square of muslin and then colored them in with fabric ink. Now it's my turn to sew them all together into a wall hanging. The pictures turned out so cute and I'm excited to get it put together. Here it is layed out on my floor so I can start sewing.
Last year we did a quilt also. It was a twin size, and the children did beach and ocean pictures. Of course each child in the class wants to own the quilt, so they put a lot of pressure on their parents the night of the Open House to win them the quilt. Therefore it is a pretty successful event for the school! And the quality of the art is amazing.
My high school son is in the marching band and they just recently had a fundraiser auction also. So, of course, I decided to make a quilt and donate it to the cause (because that's what I do). It was a twin size quilt in the colors of his school. It is actually the quilt that I have under my blog title. I haven't heard yet how much it went for. I hope it did well.
