DIANELLA Retirement Village Aussie Hero quilt...

Here are the residents of the home working on the quilt....




This is now ready to be posted...
The request was for Aqua, Southern Cross & Australian flag.
 SOUTHERN CROSS 

 AUSTRALIAN FLAG on the back of the quilt.  

Because the quilt was done before we got the recipient I appliqued the southern cross on and added and Australian flag into the backing. Then I bound it with pretty Aqua fabric...

This 2nd quilt request was for purple, minions and mad hatter.. I have added them all..
PURPLE, MADHATTER, MINIONS
MINIONS
MADHATTER
I'm sure the residents will be happy with it. Looking at these photos I know they are very happy...

Those quilts are fabulous! No wonder the residents enjoyed making them and were delighted with the results. Did you machine quilt them too?

You are such a giving person Jo. Not only will the recipients of the quilts enjoy them but you have given the residents ' a purpose in life' and an activity to look forward to. What gorgeous flowers and card - you deserve them.x xxx
