Batty Squares for Linus/Charity
Batty Squares For Linus/Charity
Below is an example of quilts one can make to help support our charity projects.
Goal:
To make as many quilts as we can for Linus and other charities to meet or beat last year's goal.
To teach a new pattern or skill to a Batty Binder member and offer support to members.
Quilts should be about 40 to 45 X 50 to 60. May also be twin size for teens. Using 8 or 9 inch squares, ones quilt should be 5 x 6 (squares) or 5 x 7 (squares).
May add a 2.5' border to the quilt as long as it is within the 45 x 60 in size.

Plain 8 or 9 inch squares arranged in different configurations to make different patterns.
