Giving Feels Good

 Giving makes you feel good.

It generates a sense of pleasure,

a "warm glow".

In other words,

it makes you just want to dance

and share your happiness with others.

 

I have a friend who is very involved

in an organization called

Child Safe Colorado 

Their goal is to help and heal

children of sexual abuse.

 They like to wrap each child

in a love quilt. 

The sad part is that there is a 

need for 100's of quilt.

My friends, the Quilty Buddies,

challenged each other to make a quilt this summer 

to give to this hard working organization.

"Frozen"

45" x 56"

My grandkiddos love all the characters of 

"Frozen".

The pattern I used was a Disappearing Nine Patch.

You can find instructions anywhere online. 

I made sure the purple fabric was

always the middle square and

that the themed fabric was in the

lower left and upper right.

 So when the nine patch was cut

it gave some continuity

and made the characters

stand out.

I'm hoping some sweet child

finds comfort wrapped in this quilt.
