Marsha these are great.  I REALLY like the second one, it just looks country and cozy.

 

Marsha-SM:

This is my June scrappy -- just a few months late!  I just got pictures taken today.  This is one of the tops that is still waiting for the batting I finally got this week!

I decided to make a few patriotic wheelchair quilts for the veterans that are in the nursing home.  Here is another variation on the 9 patch that I made that would be suitable for a man.  Most of the ones I have made before are either feminine or backed with pink or flowers or BOTH.  I have had a hard time finding masculine flannel.  I now have a dog print with blue and brown paw prints to use on them.

Marsha, thank you so much for the information.  I am currently making some for local nursing homes and was afraid that I was making them too small.  Your size will make mine more consistant for all donations.

Thank you, Robin.  Now I have to get the last 10 quilts sandwiched and quilted.  The binding goes fast, because it is portable and doesn't need a machine!  I should deliver the first 20 soon as winter is quickly approaching.  The Fibromyalgia fog and lethargy has hit me the last few weeks, so I haven't had the ambition to get at the quilting.  If I would just get started, I would feel so much better, but getting started is the problem.  These colorful tops cheer me up and I hope they will lift some spirits in the nursing home.
