SewPsyched! Quilt Auction for Charity! Plus Quilt

SewPsyched! CareAlong

It's time for another SewPsyched! CareAlong, where you bid on a hand made piece, and half of the proceeds go to a Charity or Person of your choice!! Last year, we raised $400 for Charities all across America! 

WOO!

This year, I am auctioning off my marvelous Being Charming Is A Plus Quilt.

This lap quilt measures 58 1/2" x 46" and is a bright bundle of wrinkly goodness!!

I used all Aurifil 50 wt cotton thread in the construction and quilting of this lap quilt. She is so soft!!

I used all Kona Cottons Solid fabrics in this Plus quilt. They are already so soft after only one wash, but because they are broadcloth, they will wear like iron and keep their colors bright, so your favorite recipient will have this little quilt FOREVER!

I love this little quilt so much, that I almost can't bear to part with her.

My Husband may never forgive me for sending her on!

I mean, just check out that wrinkly goodness!!

I quilted her with Wonky lines and outlined the Pluses, so that she is as interesting from the back, as she is from the front...

 The backing is Kona Cotton in Chartreuse. This picture does not do it justice. It is a vibrant, fun color!

The Being Charming Is A Plus Quilt is bound with Ombre grey fabric, so that she shimmers around the edges like a charming folk do :) I used Lynne Goldworthy's method of binding, so that she can take a lot of dragging or hanging around. 

Now, don't you think you  need this quilt for your favorite Math Teacher, littlest Kiddo or that favored Man in your life??? 

How It Works:

• You bid on the quilt on Instagram, on Facebook, or by emailing me. I will be updating all three avenues, continually.
• Opening bid is USD $150.00 This is how much it cost me to make the quilt, not including time and love :)
• Winning bid is notified via the avenue through which you bid (Instagram, Facebook, email)
• You pay SewPsyched! through Paypal.
•  You choose your charity, and I will Paypal them the proceeds, immediately. I also forward you the receipt.
