I have been teaching a friend to quilt. This is her first applique project, since she has Great Danes, I thought it fitting. Love her eye for color and detail!

Doh, here's the pic!

Too cute? Did you say 1st applique project? Wow!

WOW!!

You are a very good teacher!

Yes, her first. She says she has a good teacher too......I say I have a fantastic student!

Very well done! Congrats to you both.

It is so cute!! I love the fabrics and colors and the quilting. Tell your friend, "Great job!"

... Great job... obiously you gae her the 'tools' and what a nice reward for you - seeing that wondrful work coming out first try ... LOVE that doggie .... I hope it's of one of her females ...

Its wonderful!!!!!!

Very good for both of you! You as a good teacher. And her as a good pupil.

The pillow is terrific. Did she also do the quilting? I'd say she's a natural. It helps to have a good teacher as well. Congrats to both of you.

The quilting was her first try at quilting too. It does look alot like her Harlequin females.....which is why we did it in those fabrics. I am very proud of my girl!

Finding a Great Dane pattern for her first project without too many tiny pieces was helpful, I think.

She STARTED quilting when she saw me paper piecing.....she started with basic squares and now does some fancier ones. The next thing she wanted to learn was Drunkard's paths, and made the center of a future quilt for herself. Now she has moved onto applique......she will be on her own soon! Do I sound like a proud "mama"?

What a beautiful applique. TFS. She did an awesome job.
