And here is our Charity lady, Betty…another Charity quilt finished…and it is a beauty!! She makes these quilts LOOK fast and easy…but I know they aren’t!  Hazel did a wonderful job quilting this scrappy happy quilt!

But wait…Betty finished TWO quilts this week!  Betty is a real whizz when it comes to our charity quilts!  Do you think she loves to quilt? :)

Isn’t this nine patch darling?  How does she do it?  She takes whatever fabric she can find and whips them up into masterpieces!
