    Default Quilt made for Quilts For Kids Organization...
    I was itching to do a quick quilt, so I whipped this one up with leftovers from previous quilts. It is throw-sized and machine quilted. I'm not very good at machine quilting and can only do "meandering" at this point. I am primarily a hand quilter, but they don't want the quilts hand quilted so they can hold up to the industrial washing machines in the hospital.

    I figured that most quilts they get are geared for younger children, so I made this one geared more towards a teen girl.

    The quilt is superb, and your meandering is great!
