Hands2Help Challenge - Check In

Today is the day where we show our progress in the Hands 2 Help Challenge.  I think that so far I am right on schedule and have not felt like time is creeping up on me.  I have finished several quilts and have a few left to be quilted.


Top #1 is based on one that Tula Pink showed at last quilt market.  It is very easy to make and instead of choosing many colors, I opted to use different light grays as the secondary color in each block.  The plan is straight line quilting, which I hope to start soon.


Top #2 is simple patches using some very pastel, floral charms.  Instead of solid charms, I chose to use some polka dots which I think makes the top a bit more fun.

It's not too late to join the challenge.  I am choosing to make multiple quilts, but you can just make one if you like. 
 
I can't wait to see what projects everyone else is working on.
