Blocks to help Cancer patients



 
 Last week I was visiting Freda's blog over at http://imperamagna.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2013-08-26T01:30:00-04:00&max-results=3  where I saw some  great anvil blocks she had put together for  Victoria Wolfe at http://www.15minutesplay.com/

Victoria collects these blocks and makes quilts for Cancer patients with them.  She collects blocks from anyone who is willing to help.   You can find a tutorial for these blocks on her blog.



Victoria is into making your own fabric from scraps.  I did try the process for 2 of my blocks but it didn't give me the warm and fuzzies.  I will admit that the blocks do look pretty cool, just not my thing.  The second pair of blocks I made was with fun fabric.


 I had never made this particular block before and was quite pleased with the result. These were mailed out yesterday.



These blocks are 12 inch finished.
