Love Quilts

Love quilts ( http://lovequilts2macs.homestead.com/LQHomepage.html) is an organization that makes quilts for sick children. There branches of this organization all over the world. You can choose to make a quilt for a specific child (the child or parent has chosen a theme as a guideline) or you can make a quilt for any child that the organizers will fit into a quilt where needed. Our EGA (Embroideres Guild of America - http://www.egausa.org/) chapter does Love Quilt squares as part of our outreach program, so each year I stitch a square.



Here is this year's contribution that I turned in the other day:


It is stitched on white aida with DMC floss (don't know why the photo turned out blueish/lavender). Did I mention I hate stitching on aida?

That's exactly what I thought when I first say the design. The Lupus butterfly is all in purple and lavender, though.
