Today is a special birthday for my Mom.
For her gift this year, my sister and I did a colaborative quilt project for her which we started making last Christmas.
It's a bed-sized quilt, all hand appliqued and hand quilted.
She really loves it, and I think it will help to make this birthday very special for her.
Thanks for teaching us to quilt, Mom, and have a great day!
I'll have to post some full sized pix of the quilt for you, as it is quite pretty to see the whole thing. I will also confess that I've been secretly sweating to finish this for the last several months.
It almost KILLED ME to do so much quilting and not post any pictures on the blog. Had to be a surprise though!!!
Whew! Done on time! Hooray!
Omg! Marisa! You finished it! I was so excited to see this post today. I know you and your sister both worked so hard to finish this project. Marisa's mom: I hope you like it because it's soooo beautiful! :) Happy Birthday!
