She measures 66x77. The great gals at NFQ tied her, and she is ready for this years MCC Sale & Auction! April 4 & 5 at Fresno Pacific University. If you have further questions, either email me or leave your question in the comments.
Here are some quick stats in regards to the MCC Sale & Auction. Dotty figured out how much money our group (the NFQ, North Fresno Quilters) has been able to help raise since it started back in 1989. (I have only been a part of this group for 3 yrs.) At the beginning, they were turning in one 1 quilt a year, now we turn in about 70. Here is the total.......over $250,000!! All of that money goes toward disaster relief both here and over seas. I praise the Lord that I can be a small part of this big picture.
Linking to Finish it up Friday at Crazy Mom Quilts and Can I Get a Whoop! Whoop! at Confessions of a Fabric Addict.

Red and white quilts are the best. I keep meaning to make a two color quilt, but those other pesky colors just keep wanting to creep in.
It's 66x77 & made from scraps?! Wow, that's a great second quilt! I love all of the reds. Well done!
