Charity quilts ready for quilting

I spent a productive day at our guild’s Cuddle Quilt workshop last Saturday. I got three cuddle quilts basted… well, almost… the weather had other plans. It was too cold and windy for spray basting, so my guild friends and I had to adapt. 

Three tops sandwiched and ready for pin basting and quilting.

Layering the quilt sandwiches

At the workshop, batting was cut for all three quilt tops and the tops were layered with their backings. The next step is to pin baste before I can move on to the fun part: quilting. 

The workshop coordinator prepared and made available several rolls of bindings. We chose some coordinating colors for the tops I brought in and once quilting is done, these charity quilts will be on the fast track to being finished.  

After borders are added, this quilt top is ready for basting.

Besides the three quilt sandwiches ready for quilting, I have this (above) and another top almost complete.

Thanks to the guild members at the workshop who helped me cut the batting and lay out the sandwiches. All in all, it was a great workshop day.
