    Default Orange Cranberry Quilt

    Just finished this one... A few months ago a friend at quilting group passed me a baggie stuffed with triangles. A few were sewn into HSTs, but most were just cut. When I got them all out and started sewing them together, there were exactly enough to do 12, 16-patches. I couldn't decide on a block design, so I went for 12 designs and made a sampler. It came out 39" x 51"... good lap quilt size.

    This one is being donated to a local hospital. Our group gives quilts for people having organ transplants, and also chemotherapy patients. Some of our 'wilder' ones go to patients with brain trauma.
