I was the lead quilter for July for the Emerge Circle of do.good Stitches. We make quilts for local and global charities. I am the lead quilter once a year. The other months I make blocks for the lead quilter.
Flower Stems
The quilt is made of (12) 18″ square blocks and (12) 12″ square improv blocks. We have 12 members in Emerge Circle, including myself, so everyone made (1) 18″ square block and (1) 12″ square block. The color palette was: Salmon, Dark Gray, Light Green, White, Light Blue, Peach and Yellow. I put the blocks together randomly.
You can view the instructions here: FLower Stems pattern July 2018.
The layout is very simple with Row 1 with (4) 18″ square blocks, Row 2 with (6) 12″ square blocks and so on:
I used Quilter’s Dream batting, 100% deluxe cotton. The quilt finished at 78″ by 72″. I used the walking foot on my Bernina to quilt it.
Great quilt, thanks for sharing the pattern.

Hello Wanda,
Thank you for sending your beautiful quilt to Children’s Home Society.
We just want to make sure of your intention for this wonderful donation, is the quilt for a child in foster care or a youth in The Possibilities Program or may we use it for a fundraiser? If it is not for a specific child it would be a very popular silent auction item at our next event.

I love how in the diagram it appears so grid like and organized but when completed it feels so wonderfully random!
