Last year I was approached to make a quilt for the choir director at church. So, this is what I did....

That is wonderful! How special that quilt is! I love the themed fabric too. Even the signatures on the back look good on the quilt.

Great work!

thanks mary ruth....I liked the material because it didn't look kitchy - it looked a bit more classy. She did shed a tear or two.

I have 2 local quilt inspectors. They look like they could be sisters, but they're not. This is SweetPea...

That is one of my favorite quilts I have seen! Sometimes the country patchworks all start looking alike and can get too busy. Very classy!

What a beautiful creation! I admire anyone who has the patience to see a project like this to completion, and the choir personal nature of the gift is just great! Very meaningful!

Congratulations!
