For The Love of Quilts

I was looking for a pair of shoes in my wardrobe (where I also store my fabric) a few weeks ago and Ash looked in and said, "Wow!  You've got a whole haberdashery in there."
I do and I felt a little bit guilty about it.  It consists of a lot of small pieces of fabric that I have "plans" for, but I have no idea of what that "plan" is.
So, I made a decision and I started turning all of my fabric bits and pieces into beautiful quilts for babies in Intensive Care Units.

Ava received a quilt while she was in Intensive Care and it is a wonderfully sweet thing to be given.  I hope my quilts will help brighten someone's day and keep their special little bubble warm.

how awesome are you! that is a brilliant idea! i'm sure that who ever is lucky enough to receive one will appreciate it as much as you and ava did. can you just donate them to your local hospital? is there any special requirements?

Hi Hannah, thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a lovely comment. What a lovely idea, I'm sure your quilts will be really appreciated, and then you'll have an excuse to buy more fabric. win, win

What a great idea. I just need to find a bit of spare time. They look like gorgeous quilts.

My haberdashery is pretty much all over the house!
