Now, down to business! Mitzi Zohar, President of Pieceful Nights Quilters Guild, had e-mailed a while back about this great project. Below you will see one of her "Preemie Quilts". 

This is an 18 inch finished quilt! Backed with baby flannel! It is a fabulous idea and....wait for it.....you know all those errant blocks you have lying around from unfinished quilts (the ones you will never finish) or technique classes that you have no idea what to do with...well....add a border to make it 18" square and you have a "Preemie Quilt". (No batting and minimal quilting please! these babies are fragile!) We will be doing a number of them with blocks and fabrics we have left over from finished projects and donating them to Toronto Sick Childrens Hospital and other area hospitals where they are needed. If you want to help us out just do up a few yourself and drop them off at the store when you have a chance!

I actually didn't notice until after I took the pictures that the block Mitzi used is a Heart! So now it's a Heart on its side. You get the idea.....
