Eventually, I reached out to the eQuilter Initiative (the group collecting and distributing the quilts) and asked if I should still send the quilts along once I finish them. I think my email must have been overlooked and then I'll be honest, time ran away with me and I didn't follow up. I saw the quilts sitting there a few short weeks ago and decided I'd send them along should another need arise. I knew that, unfortunately, there would be another natural disaster or the like. It's the sad constant of our lives, isn't it.
I suspect these quilts will come in handy sooner rather than later now and in anticipation of a drive being organized in our quilting community, I wanted to show you these quilts. It's amazing to me how scrappy fabrics and colors can all, eventually work together.
Quilt 1, one solid binding choice.
Quilt 2, scrappy binding.
May God bless, heal and provide strength to those who need it in Oklahoma, today. If you have a top that's in the WiP pile & without a purpose, maybe you will be able to complete it & donate when the call comes?

I really love both of these delightfully scrappy quilts. And they will be appreciated by the eventual recipients.
These are lovely, I have been thinking the same thing. My heart goes out to those in OK, who have lost so much, and yet at this time they say money is the best to send there. However the people of West , TX are about ready for some things for their new or temporary place to live. I am going to get right on that. I have a few tops that are ready.
Becky, that is so nice of you to have put them together. They turned out lovely!
These quilts will definitely be loved by someone. I love the scrappy look :)
Such great quilts Beck! Love the scrappy blocks.
