I finished this quilt top yesterday. The frog block in the center is an orphan block that I've had up on a design board for literally years. I had originally planned to make 4 of the frog blocks for a baby quilt, but I decided against that idea. I've been planning this quilt for a while now, but I've just finally gotten around to it. The frog block is 15 inches, and I added a 1-1/2 inch border around it to make an 18 inch square for the center. The surrounding fabrics are mostly blues and greens with both frog and bug fabrics, too. Those are 6 inch squares. The inner border is 1-1/2 inches and the outer border is 6 inches. The quilt will finish at 45 inches by 57 inches.
This month I started back going to quilt guild and found out that my guild now supports Quilts Beyond Borders, a charity providing quilts to children in under-served areas of the world. I had always planned to give this quilt to charity in some fashion, so now I have a good outlet for that.
