This is the newest project for Juarez.
We recently had a large box of fabric donated specifically for quilts for Mexico. It is beautiful fabric that almost all goes together. There are many "country" motifs. There is probably enough in the box to do 3 king sized quilts.
The fabric and the quilt is being passed around from person to person. Everyone adds a new border. Elsie did the Flying Geese, Laura did the Log Cabins. I am adding some triangle do-dads to the top and bottom so it will become rectangular. Right now it is 54" square.
Little Bits of Comfort is a group of friends interested in quilting. We meet every Thursday night. The quilts we make are donated to the Juarez Orphanage and MCC. Little Bits of Comfort is also a devotional coffee table book being sold to raise money for the Juarez Orphanage.
