Early in 2022, our guild started work on this quilt. “Suburbs
Tree Block” from Cluck Cluck Sew couldn’t have been simpler. It’s a grey
isosceles triangle between two white tone-on-tone right triangles, above a
black square and two white rectangles. Each month we made several matching tree
blocks, then swapped them so we’d each end up with a scrappy quilt. Extra blocks
went into a group project to be hand quilted and donated to the IHC Holiday
Quilt Show and Auction. I didn’t help with the hand quilting, and the six red
trees weren’t my idea (though I wish I’d thought of them). But I did contribute
several grey trees. This lovely quilt was auctioned off with dozens of others
last week to fund a new ultrasound imaging machine for the Grant Scott Bonham
Fetal Center at Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital. I’m happy to take a
little of the credit. Now if I can just finish my own tree quilt.
