This quilt will be donated to a local library as one of their prizes for their summer reading program. 30 of us were given 1/2 yard of the yellow material (words on it). With that material we were asked to create a quilt that portrayed some type of movement that measured about 40 x 65. My hot air balloon material was perfect for this project. In each of the balloon rows I "puffed" 3 of the balloons as you can see from the picture on the right.
In order to "puff" the balloons, I attached a small piece of white material on the back of the balloon and hand sewed around the outside of the balloon. On the back I made a slit in the white material and stuffed the balloon with poly fill and then hand sewed the slit closed.
