Quilt Auction for Sew Much Hope!!!

I am super excited to let you all know that the Sew Much Hope Charity Quilt Auction is underway!!  The Quilt Auction Stars Here and will run through Saturday May 4th.   At 11 am that morning the quilts will be taken to the UQSM Quilt Show to the live Auction where they will finish on stage with a live auctioneer   (but no worries, you can call in your bid if you can't be there in person :)  Isn't that just so fun!!!   You can read all about the Sew Much Hope Charity here .  It warms my heart to be able to using my love for quilting to help such an amazing cause!!! 


You wanna see the quilts that are being auctioned???  Oh, they are oh so fun :)  Each "celebrity" quilt was made with the same fabric that is being used for the Challenge Quilt at the Show.   It is Looking Forward by Jen Kingwell and I love how happy and bright it is.   


I made my Back to Basics Quilt for the auction.  (Pattern in my etsy shop)  I love how the black background just makes those happy bright prints just pop!!!  The quilt measures 68" x 82" so it is a great size to wrap up in or use on a twin bed :)


And there are three other amazing quilts you can bid on as well.   Jenny Doan from Missouri Star Quilt Company made this gorgeous Disappearing Pinwheel Church Dash Quilt that measures 55" x 66".  I love the Lollies border on it!!! 


Natalia Bonner from Piece N Quilt  made this super adorable Made With Love Quilt that measures 58" x 60".   And that straight line quilting just sets off this modern quilt!!


And Kaitlyn Howell from Knot and Thread   made this awesome Mod Diamonds Variation Quilt   that measures 66" x 71".  And I just love the movement in this one. 


So that is the Sew Much Hope Quilt Auction, and I am tickled to see that the bidding has already started!!!    Quilters are just amazing in their love and generosity!!!   And how incredible is it that this charity is all about providing refugees with sewing machines to help foster self reliance, it just brings it around full circle!!!     

I am so happy to be a quilter and among so many amazing quilters like you all :) 

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!!
