#Love of Everyday things quilt project
an Interactive Community Quilt project
2 quilts: 63 x 53
Blocks were made on March 17th National Quilting Day 2018
by the public visiting the International Quilt Study Center and Museum
Lincoln Ne.
Yesterday, May 4th, the Museum celebrated their 10th Anniversary by having a Block Party.
Thanks to some wonderful volunteer longarm quilters: Stephanie Jacobson and Patrice Steiner these quilts were done this week and ready to be on display throughout the weekend.
Soon the community quilts will find a new home with our local Child Advocacy Center Lincoln Ne.
Thanks to Accuquilt!! They loaned me an Accuquilt Go and some dies and with the help of Cindy, one of my sisters, we were able to cut tons of shapes to use for the blocks.
If you are on Instagram you can check out #loveofeverydayquiltproject and see many of the smiling faces that made the blocks.

Some of the blocks were super creative
Quilty goodness!
Windham's Story fabric in Newsprint is one of my all time favorite fabrics and this is the 108" wide...bonus!
I made a computer label for each quilt.
Putting a sleeve on with wide binding was tricky. Because I could not block the quilts I had to get them flat and straight.
3.5" single width facing
Holding my breath but they ended pretty flat!
and straight!
