I made six blocks which I have stitched together into a quilt, adding some sashing and a border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1234\" width=\"327\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-600x750.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 327px) 100vw, 327px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The quilt was finished with some simple cross hatch quilting and binding. I kept the off cuts from the corners of the hearts and have stitched them together to make a little incubator the quilt. The larger quilt has gone off to the Woman&#8217;s Refuge and the little one to the hospital to the Premature Baby Unit. I hope that they will provide comfort in times of need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1235\" width=\"360\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3-600x750.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.patchworkpatterns.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Charity-quilt-3.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is lovely to be able to support various charities with quilt making.
