Wonky Crosses and Wobbly Spirals


I think this quilt is my final finish of 2014. It’s another quilt for Project Linus and the starting point was a pack of red squares I bought from the Project Linus stand at a quilt show.


There were 24 squares in the pack, but I managed to lose one, hence the “feature” blue square. The crosses were cut from two charity shop 100% cotton shirts that were amongst the many I bought when I started quilting.


It is backed with a layer of fleece and the quilting is my new stand-by pattern of an off centre spiral.


I’ve hand stitched the binding to the back, but as this is for Project Linus I’ve decided that I will reinforce the bindings on this and my other charity quilts with a line of machine stitching.
