This quilt measures 56" x 56". The birdies are fused and machine appliqued. The blocks are machine pieced. It is made with 100% cotton fabric and the batting is 80% cotton/20% polyester. It is hand quilted with cotton thread. It is machine washable and dryable.
This charming quilt is perfect as a sofa throw or for a toddler bed. I will also gladly attach a hanging sleeve should the winner choose to display it on a wall.
The auction will be held on this blog. Place bids by leaving a comment on this post with your bid amount and some way of contacting you (i.e. email address).

Have you put a note on the cycling groups on Ravelry about the ride? There's cycling knitters and a TdF group that would want to know about this. :)
