I made this quilt from the leftovers from the cat quilt. Cat quilt – artistic and creative. This quilt – not so much. I’d taken to calling it the reject quilt because it contains pieces of borders I auditioned for the cat quilt and then rejected. I just grabbed pieces and started sewing them together and then used fabric strips to make it bigger. It is quite ugly but it is warm so it will be going to a organization that takes supplies to homeless camps.
One of my 101 things in 1001 days goals was to make a donation on each of the sabbats. I’m claiming this one as my Imbolc donation for this year. I have another quilt in progress that is destined to be a donation so we’ll see if I can get that one done before Beltaine. (I just went and looked at the 101 list. I copped out when I made the list and said that I was going to do a donation for each of the solstices and equinoxes for a year. That means 4 instead of 8. This is too early to claim this for the spring equinox so it is now just a freebie.)
[…] My poor, ugly reject quilt has been rejected again. It is so ugly that someone would have to be really cold to like it. So I sent it to a homeless shelter in January. It just came back to me unopened in the mail. I guess that shelter isn’t there anymore. […]
