I made a flag for Boston,
following the template set out by the Vancouver Modern Guild.
My little flag has a string heart on one side
and three smaller hearts on the other side.
If you want to make one, the deadline to get them to Boston is still a few weeks away.
Not only did I find my rotary cutter in a bag of fabric,
I also bought two 12 by 16 interlocking cutting mats on sale this week.
I like the fact I can join them on the short end or long sides
and they'll fit into my quilting bag.
I've been gathering string blocks from my in-person quilting friends
to make several quilts for the emergency shelter in a local charity.
This is the "pink" quilt. I have enough blocks to make at least three more.
I've organized them into colour families: yellow, green/blue and black.
Watch for those soon!

Lots of great work! I have made a couple of flags for Boston too.
Hooray for your flag for Boston, it looks great and I love the dotty tie you made.
Your scrap charity quilts are great!
how nice of you.
Love what you've shared -- the collaborative string quilts are so cool (of course, you know I adore strings!)
Hugs!!
Cute little heart quilt for Boston. Love your scrappy string quilt.
