The Colorado Gizzy Quilt

The Colorado Gizzy quilt is finished, with Millie's help, as you can see.
It is 60" x 78".

In the photo below, you can see Chris's lovely quilting.
 These are called "Gizzy" quilts because I started making them five years ago to raise money to pay for my cat Gizzy's vet bills. He was very sick, and I was in a tight spot financially.  I made custom kitty-sized quilts. This quilt was made from all the leftover blocks.  When I look at them, I see  blocks from quilts I made for the cats: Sophie, Poppy, Monty, the Fancidots Gang, Charmee, Beezer, Parker, Sanjee, Bubbles, Frostin, Trouble, Bella, Kipling, Angel, Star, Isis, Fat Eric, Madness, Faz, Miss Peach, Derby, Dragonheart, Angus, Padre, Meerkat, Panda Bear, Cookie, Caramel, Chance, Rudy, Rusty, Casey, Marie, Diesel, Roscoe, Ziggy, Kaze, Lilly Lu, Pippi, Loki and dozens of others.


I hope this quilt will bring a bit of consolation to the family that receives it.
