Each Spring the theme for the next year's partnership quilts is announced. Individual blocks are sent by July 31st and many volunteers sort them into quilts of 154 blocks each. Then they are sewn together and quilted. At the Quilt Festival, you can buy chances to win the quilt, with the money raised going to charity. This year 8,721 blocks were received. The theme was my favorite animal.
Here are photos of the quilts containing blocks my friends made.
I'm sorry I didn't get the full quilt |

Beautiful quilts, it would be a treasure to have one of those.
Your panda block is well done.
All of those quilts are amazing, so many good ideas.
Pamela: Again another group of fantastic quilts.

I'd forgotten about the "favourite animal" blocks. Didn't they all turn into fantastic quilts!
Every block is charming!
What a wonderful concept! I loved seeing all the quilts. I found your panda block! My favorite quilt of them all, too.
Well done to your friends, they were all lovely, but the seal really caught my eye.
There's a lot of pandas around! How fun.
