Last night, as the clock struck twelve, the last of the tea was drunk, the final ginger-chocolate-chip biscuit was scoffed, and the 130th square was slipped into place on my living-room floor. The enormous grey and yellow geometric pattern is a first effort at community quilting -- quilts made with donated fabric, by volunteers, for local people in need of bedding.
You can read more about the project, and get involved, here.

I can totally see the Scandinavian hive thing. And I am loving your new header! :)
I am really admiring both the beautiful quilt (plus, NOT old fashioned) and your involvement in a tremendous project...
It is very soothing and inspiring. Thank you again Astrid!
This is wonderful! I would love to give you some items I have: pillow cases, fabric, sheets, etc.
What a fabulous idea and I love the way it is looking. Wish I was closer to join in. A great idea to start wherever we are.
What a great idea, and I think your colour combination is so vivid and bright. Well done.
