H2H Progress

I'm participating in Hands 2 Help over at Confessions of a Fabric Addict and today is progress update link day. I'm making a lap quilt for Happy Chemo and I've got the top together:
H2H Top

Actually it was a little windy when I was taking pictures, but I was finally able to get a better one:
H2H Top

This will finish at 40" square, a good lap size for wheelchair users that (so I'm told) won't get caught in the wheels.

This started out as a fat eighth bundle from Benartex featuring lots of luscious purples that I picked up at the AQS show several years ago. The top used 8 fat eighths and a yard of beige print background, so I can count two yards out of my stash this week. I'll use the remaining fat eighths and a bit more of the beige to piece together the backing, but since it's not finished I can't count it out yet.

Linking up with Patchwork Times for the Stash Report and Confessions of a Fabric Addict for H2H progress update. Check out all the inspiring projects!

  1. I'm here from Confessions of a Fabric Addict. Love this quilt. Think I might steal the idea for my 3rd quilt for H2H. Love your color choices.

  2. It is a pattern that looks difficult, but now that I see it close, or in your colors, it does look easier. It's a lovely quilt. Thanks for sharing your pictures with us.
