All of the quilts I've decided to share with you can be found at Flickr.com. In the box that says "search everyone's photos" type in "baby quilts." When I did it, there were over 5000 photos that had been tagged with "baby quilt." I've chosen just a few to share.

Click on the photo and you will be taken to Flickr.com where this photo "lives." Once you get there, this photo has "notes" -- move your mouse over the outlined areas and find out where some of these fabrics came from. Sort of something Chenille might have done. :-)

In TURQUOISE, Chenille's baby quilts are lovingly made using fabric trimmed from clothing that carries memories for her. A simple quilt like this one made from squares could easily be constructed from assorted fabric scraps.

Sorry, this photo isn't quite clear. But I thought it was a cute idea -- with the raggedy edges on the hearts as well as around the blocks. This type of quilt construction is getting to be quite popular, especially when made from flannels or fleece.

FAIR TRADE CHOCOLATE EVENT



Who doesn't like chocolate? There are very few people who don't. (They were probably given chocolate as a kid but were told it was calves' liver or something like that.)


Did you know that about half of the world's chocolate is produced with slave labor? For more information, visit http://www.stopthetraffik.org/.


If you like to cook and would like to win a goodie bag of Traffik-Free Chocolate, stop over here: http://rkhooks.net/2007/09/03/stop-the-traffik-chocolate-event/


If you participate, stop back here.


In the comments section leave your name and the url to your blog post that you use to enter r k hooks' event, using Traffik-Free Chocolate.


I'll be posting this info about the event at each of my blogs. Feel free to leave your comment and link at each one. (One comment entry per blog please, though.) From all of the comments posted, there will be a random drawing and I'll send out a chocolate-related thank you to three winners.
