Quilt tops for West, TX

My friend, JudyL, over at www.patchworktimes.com   is organizing quilts to take to the families in West, Texas that lost loved ones in the fertilizer plant explosion. she also organized quilts for Joplin, MO after their tornado. she is a very giving person and organizes the rest of us.

I am going to box up some quilts and send them to her. Judy wants finished quilts to send.

But, Judy's friend, Jo......is willing to take quilt tops and she will quilt them up and send them on to Judy for distribution. what a great way to lighten the load in my to-be-quilted cabinet....and help out some folks who need it.  

So, i got together 5 quilts tops with some backings and bindings and am going to ship them out to Jo.


On the top is Retro Lines....along with a backing and binding.
In the middle is a red, black and yellow machine embroidery top...with backing and binding
On the bottom is a disappearing 4 patch...with backing


Then i found a red, white and blue selvage quilt. but don't have a backing for it.
And the Japanese Ladies top that i don't care for .... with backing and binding. 
Is it wrong the send one that i no longer like?  LOL  i think it will have a better home ... with someone who appreciates it more than i do. hahahahaha


Now have to dig out some finished quilts to send to Judy. we are gonna cover West, TX folks in quilty love.

Well done Shirley! That's a fantastic way to use some of your UFO's and tops that don't have a home yet.
