San-Dee's Quilt of Hugs

I'm so sorry I can't locate yet the photo of the finished quilt...but I do have pictures of the top pre-quilted.



I found a piece of very brightly flowered fabric for the back....seriously flowered here ladies LOL...and at first I started free motion quilting but it wasn't making it special.  So I unpicked it and started new doing hand quilting for the first time.  Wow...that's a skill that will take time to become fluent in.  I chose thread colours that went with the fabric used in the individual blocks.

San-Dee, it was a pleasure and I'm happy it made it to you when you really need it.  You take care and heal both emotionally and physically (gotta look after those eyes!).  You are very special.   (((hugs)))  

Thank you my friends for all you did to get this done, you are the best.

  2. Ladies, let me say Viv is not kidding when she says seriously printed bright flowers, I think I had a dress back in the 60s of a similar flower power print! Every time I glance at this quilt I get warm fuzzies to know that I have such wonderful friends around the world. You are all too much! xxooxx
