Hands 2 Help 2023

This is the final week for the 2023 Hands 2 Help Challenge, which means it is time for everyone to share photos of their finished quilts!




Hands 2 Help is a comfort quilt challenge that was started by Sarah, who blogs at Confessions of a Fabric AddictQuilters from all over the U.S. and other countries make and donate comfort quilts, either to the organizations chosen for the challenge or they can donate locally. 2023 was the thirteenth year of the Hands 2 Help Challenge, and several thousand quilts have been donated through the years. My first year to join the challenge was 2013, although I haven't participated every year.

My H2H quilt for this year is one that I call "Pretty in Purple." It is my first-ever reversible quilt, with a nine-patch and half-square triangle design on one side. The other side features purple four-patches.





The finished size of this quilt was 36" x 48" before washing. The quilt has been donated to the local Department of Family and Children Services through our quilt guild. I am certain there will be a child who is crazy about purple and will love this quilt.

  4. I agree! Purple is very popular among children and adults lately, and this one is a beauty, either side up.
