Hands2Help, Happy Chemo Quilt #2

This quilt was made a few months ago so I could practice spiral quilting on my brand-new Bernina, to become familiar with the new machine and improve my quilting. I'm sending it to Happy Chemo for Hands2Help. Hands2Help is a comfort quilt donation drive organized by Sarah over at Confessions of a Fabric Addict.

At 44" x 58" it's a small lap size, but maybe it will bring comfort to a young girl or teen who's going through a tough time. I knew when I made this quilt that it would be a donation quilt. I'm very fortunate to be able to make quilts to give to others.

Sarah has at least 125 participants in Hands2Help this year. Check out what everyone's been making in her link up over at Confessions of a Fabric Addict.

  1. The practice on the spiral quilting really paid off and I'm sure this will be loved by the recipient.

  3. Nice! It actually looks great for a teenage boy--they have chemo too! It's the perfect size to use in the chair. Nice quilting, too!

  8. Love this quilt! Your use of the black and white with just a touch of color here and there is very clever!
