SWT, first Project Linus quilt

This was the first of my Project Linus quilts, made in 2013.  I loved working with the colorful jelly roll strips and did a simple Rail Fence pattern to show them off.  


For the backing I bought a readymade fleece child's blanket to back it, with no batting needed.  I simply tied it with perle cotton, but had to use pliers to pull the needle through the fleece...live and learn.  Since then I have made six Project Linus quilts for needy kids.
