Red Rhythms II

Red Rhythms II

After completing the first Red Rhythms,
I had a few strips and some pieces of red left over.  Not one to let anything go to waste, I sewed up the red pieces to make another charity quilt. I had used all of the red to back and bind the first quilt.  This time I found a wonderful yellow-red-blue paisley for the back and a nice red with yellow for the binding.  Nice and colorful for a baby.

 
Although the first went to Japan, this one is going to our local guild charity reserve.  One person in the guild is in charge of all of these quilts.  She is listed as the contact person for fire departments, police departments, hospitals, nursing homes and others who might have a need.  One of the things I really love about my guild is their willingness to make and give quilts to those unknown folks who develop a need.  Always gives me a bit of JOY to be able to share.
