September 2021, 40" X 60" quilt for "Project Linus"

I had a box full of 2" squares and started sewing them together for this quilt.  Then I found another bag with more of the same.  I spent two months sewing squares together and will post 2 more quilts when they are done.  These are for "Project Linus" which is a national charity organization that gives quilts to children in crisis.  Project Linus - from the Snoopy cartoon with a character named "Linus" who walks around with a quilt over his shoulder and his thumb in his mouth.   A woman in our quilt guild who also owns the fabric store had several bolts of fabric produced specifically for "Project Linus"  and she donated them to me to use for backings.  This backing is cute with pictures from the Snoopy cartoon.  A national representative for the project lives in Gr.Junction and I can get my quilts to her by calling, her husband works in the area and is often in Moab.  Handy, I don't have to mail them.
