Swim, Bike, Quilt

Last year I was lucky enough to win a sweet DS Quilts charm pack from Katie at Swim Bike Quilt during her 100 Quilts for Kids drive.  I decided to use the Patchwork Chevron pattern that Jeni has available on her blog In Color Order to make a few more quilts to donate this year.

(I know it sounds like I know these ladies, but I don't.  I'm just being all blog-casual today I guess.)


It was such fun sewing with the DS Quilts fabrics from Australia.  
Wish wish wish we could all have access to ALL the color ways!


The Chevron pattern is a quick sew and I love the finished quilts.
I made two baby quilts instead of one big one.



Using up more of the DS Quilts stash for the backs.  
Seriously, why on earth did I think I needed so much?


These two quilts will be going to Project Linus along with a few others.
It's not too late to join in the fun!

Digging the nod to the Spice Girls in your title! Wanting to try one of these zig zag/chevron style quilts. Looks good!

Okay...

1) When do you sleep?

2) LOVE these!

3) HATE it when I don't get the reference to the Spice Girls. :( Now, I'm going to have to look it up...
