Quilts for Kids - Whale Quilt

Quilts for Kids
I finished the whale quilt for Quilts for Kids recently. In fact it's just in time for this Saturday's meeting! I just cut some fabric squares from the whale print and framed the squares out with complimentary colors and sewed them together in rows with a border of those same whales.  I bought some red polka dot fabric for the back but I didn't measure correctly so I didn't get enough.  Instead of buying more or piecing something together, I remembered the 80 yards of flannel I purchased on Black Friday a few years back.  There are still some sizable chunks of it left and I used the red flannel for the back.  It's really nice having that stash as it is perfect for these quilts when I remember that it is there! Finishing these quilts sure feels good.
